turing code error loop

-----------------------------------

I am trying to create a code in which you can calculate the sum difference product and quotient of two integers. I want to ask the user if they want to try it again, but I don't know why its not working.

this is my code :

% Declaration section

var theSecondInteger : real
var theFirstInteger : real
var sum : real
var difference : real
var product : real
var quotient : real
var response : string
var yes : string
var no : string

% Input section

put "Hello."
put "I will calculate the sum, difference, product, and quotient"
put "of two integers of your choice."
loop
    put "What is your first integer? " ..
    get theFirstInteger
    put "What is your second integer? " ..
    get theSecondInteger

    % Processing section
    sum := theFirstInteger + theSecondInteger
    difference := theFirstInteger - theSecondInteger
    product := theFirstInteger * theSecondInteger
    quotient := theFirstInteger / theSecondInteger

    % Output section
    put "The sum is ", sum
    put "The difference is ", difference
    put "The product is ", product
    put "The quotient is ", quotient
    put "Thank you!"

    put "Would you like to calculate another amount?"
    get response
    if response = yes
        % continue

            then
        response := no
        % exit

    end if
end loop


please help me :D thank you

Be more specific; What are you trying to do that it's failing to accomplish?

maybe look at the if statement condition.  If they want to continue then what does it actually do?  Think about it and you should come up with an answer to your problem

whoops, didn't see that -.-'

Yeah,youjust have it set up wrong. This is the kind of thing you're looking for

[syntax="turing"]
if (this thing happens) then
     do_this_thing ()
elsif (the other thing happens) then
     do_other_thing ()
end if
[/yntax]
