C# - Throwing Exception - Challenge Task 1of 1 - Throw System.Exception if the value is outside of the range.

I can't figure out why it's not working

Program.cs 
int value = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());

try
    {
       if(value <0 || value >20)
        {
        throw new System.Exception();
        }

 Console.WriteLine(string.Format("You entered {0}",value));

    }    
catch(Exception)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Value is out of range");
}

Hello!

The challenge only requires you to check whether the value is out of range and to throw an exception if it is. It doesn't ask you to handle the exception. If you remove the try/catch block it should work.

Hope it helped!

Aaaa thanks. I thought that was some mistake in my code.
