title: Validating user input in java?
body: <p>My guessing game takes either 5, 10, or 20 guesses from a user and they are supposed to try to guess a random number chosen by the computer. Everything in my code is working except this: when the code asks the user whether they want 5, 10, or 20 guesses, if the user were to enter 15, for example, which is not one of the options, it goes on and starts asking for their guesses. I need some type of validation that will make sure they enter one of the options. I'm not sure where or how to include this in the correct way since I am new to programming. I've tried several different ways but get errors for all. What I need is if the user puts a number that is not one of the options, it should just ask them again until they input one of the options. Can someone show me how I should do this?</p>
