16,244 PointsHey Rakesh! You've got the right idea, but I believe it is asking you to assign the int line
variable (that they have already defined) to 1 or 2 depending on the condition. So there is no need to define the strings lineOne
and lineTwo
.
You'll need to move the int line = 0;
above your if statement and then you can go ahead and assign 1 or 2 as needed.
Hope that helps!
