I think it is not reading my if statement, do I need to change the if statement?

CodePudding user response：

Why do you have i and j? You only change i, j stays 0 forever and therefore you always compare the first entry of Answers, an "A".

Solution: remove the j and replace where it was used with an i.

Optionally: remove Letter as an array entirely and just have a single String givenAnswer = input.nextLine(); in the loop.
