do
{
//User inputs whether they want to add a customer, view a customer, or end the program
System.out.println("
Main Menu
1. Add new customer
2. View customer records
3. Exit program");
chChoice = (char) System.in.read();

if (chChoice == '1')
{
//If user chooses choice one, then it would take the user to the add a customer section
System.out.println("You have chosen to add a customer to the current records.");
//Choice One - Add a Customer
//User inputs the customer's name
System.out.println("Enter customer's name: ");
chName = (char) System.in.read();

while ((chName >= 'A' && chName <= 'Z') || (chName >= 'a' && chName <= 'z'))
{
strName += chName;
chName = (char) System.in.read();
}

System.out.println("Customer's Name: " + strName);
}
I am having problems with this code, in high school it's part of a program, and i was applying concepts that we used and what you have taught me but it would go through the choice and when it hits enter customer name, it stops why ?

Victor it is if you are wondering this is very late.

When I did the divide by 0 program, it finished successfully, and returned Infinity. Is this a new feature of Java?
