i didn't realize this, but the syntax for a do loop is:
1
2
3
|
do{
}while(expression);

i didn't think that the while statement needed to be there, but it does.

Good and consistent formatting makes it a lot easier to spot mistakes.

You are missing the while statement in your nested do-while loop.
