Question about scope of variables in try/catch block?

You are setting failedFlag to false at the top of the while loop.

If you put the failed flag above the while loop, it will have a scope outside the loop. Currently, with the scope you have, the flag is redefined every time the loop restarts.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
