I am trying to figure out why I cannot get the loop to break if either "n" is input for playAgain or when the total is below $10. If you see how I can break the loop to run the gameOver function without having an exception thrown that would be a great help. I have noted in the code below that I am having trouble with. I am unsure why this exception is being thrown. If you are able to find out how to break the loop when total is less than 10 or when playAgain is false please let me know!

CodePudding user response:
There is no error when you change this (without using String.format()):
System.out.printf("Based on your play, the probability of winning is %.2%", winPercent);
To this:
System.out.println("Based on your play, the probability of winning is " winPercent "%.");
Example with a little bet (console):
Your balance is $11
Place your bet: $
10
Your roll: Dice1: 1, Dice2: 2; Roll Value: 3
Oh, I'm sorry, you lost.
Your current balance: $1
Wins: 0.0 Number of games: 2.0
Based on your play, the probability of winning is 0.0%.
Seems you lost your shirt; better luck next time.
Have a nice day! Hope to see you soon!
I cannot get the loop to break if either "n" is input for playAgain or when the total is below $10.
It works fine too. If I put a bet below 10 it asks me to put another bit. What
