Why would something like this not work for a simple yes/no to continue? This is only a portion of the code, but doing this it just keeps looping asking for yes or no over and over no matter what the user inputs. I'm trying to get it to just ask the user to choose yes or no again if they don't press 'y' or 'n'.

   do

   {

      printf("Do you want to enter a middle initial(s)? (y or n): ");

      scanf("%s", &prompt);

   } while (prompt != 'y' || prompt != 'Y' || prompt != 'n' || prompt != 'N');

   if (prompt == 'y' || prompt == 'Y')

   {

      printf("Please enter the contact's middle initial(s): ");
