In Processing, how are you determining if the user wants the program to run again?
Are you asking them? Waiting for a mouse click or button press?

Or what?

int i=1;
boolean condition = true;
while( condition ){
println( "Some code, time #" + i );
i++;
condition = i<5;
}
exit();

A topic coming up regularly in this forum...
Have a function initializing all your variables. Not the constants like loaded images and fonts, for example, you can keep them in setup().
Call this function from setup().
Call it from your condition to reset the program.

It would be really helpful if we could see the code that you're trying to "reset".
As PhiLho has said, the best way would be simply to restore all your variables to their initial values.

int var;
void setup(){
size(220,220);
reset(); // Restores initial values
}
void draw(){
if( var < 100 ){
println( var++ );
}
}
void reset(){
var = 0;
}
void keyPressed(){
reset();
}
