Question

I'm trying to get my code to loop back to let the user input multiple patients.

import java.util.Scanner;

public class XYZ {

   public static void main(String[] args) {   
       String response;

       do{
           //import scanner for input
           Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);   
           //prompt user input for last name
           System.out.print("Enter last name ");
           //output for last name
           String s1 = input.nextLine();
           //prompt user input for first name
           System.out.print("Enter first name ");
           //output for first name
           String s2 = input.nextLine();
           //prompt user for street address
           System.out.print("Enter street address ");
           //output for street address
           String address = input.nextLine();
           //prompt user for city
           System.out.print("Enter city ");
           //output for city
           String city = input.nextLine();
           //prompt user for state
           System.out.print("Enter state ");
           //output for state
           String state = input.nextLine();
           //prompt user for zipcode
           System.out.print("Enter zip code ");
           //output for zip code
           String zip = input.nextLine();
           //prompt user for owed amount
           System.out.print("Enter amount owed ");
           //output for amount owed
           String amount = input.nextLine();
           //prompt user for payment amount
           System.out.print("Enter payment amount ");
           //output for payment amount
           String payment = input.nextLine();
           //prompt user for payment date
           System.out.print("Enter payment date ");
           //output for payment date
           String date = input.nextLine();

          

       //final print out output title
       System.out.printf("%80s\n", "XYZ Community Hospital");
       //final print out spacing
       System.out.printf(String.format("%150s\n", "").replace(' ', '='));
       //final print out titles and spacing
       System.out.printf("%10s%30s%80s\n", "Name", "Address", "Payment Information");
       //final print out titles and spacing
       System.out.printf("%-8s %-12s %-30s %-15s %-5s %-10s %-15s %-15s %-15s \n", "Last", "First", "Address Line 1", "City", "State", "Zip", "Amount Owed",

               "Payment Amt.", "Payment Date");

       System.out.printf(String.format("%150s\n", "").replace(' ', '='));
       //final output print out
       System.out.printf("%-8s %-12s %-30s %-15s %-5s %-10s %-15s %-15s %-15s \n", s1, s2, address, city, state, zip, amount, payment, date);

       //ask user for next entry
       System.out.println("Would you like to make another entry?[Y/N]");
       response = input.nextLine();
       input.close();
   }
   while (response==("Y")); }

      
  
   }

Mistakes You have done :

1) You close the scanner inside the loop.

2) We cant compare the two Strings objects using double equal (==) method.Since response variable is of type string we have to use equals() method or equalsIgnoreCase() method
