while(isInvalid(input)) is very clumsy. Not only do you artificially initialize input to an invalid value to force it to enter the loop the first time, you also have a redundant isInvalid(input) rest inside the loop. You would be better off with a do-while loop.

Fixed code.

| Oct 13, 2017 at 3:44 | comment | added | Gerrit0 | Your reworked code abandons the error handling the OP includes presumably for good reason. This probably isn't a good idea. | |
