Hi Joel Muro - You have a "Console.Write("C#");" statement before the "string" declaration. That is not part of the solution. Remove it and you should be good to go.

string language = Console.ReadLine();

if (language =="C#") {

System.Console.Write("C# Rocks!");

Take a look at my answer. If that does not work then provide us with the error message that is returned. The error message usually starts with "Bummer!".

string language = Console.ReadLine(); if (language == "C#") { Console.WriteLine("C# Rocks!"); }

Remember it's just asking you to write the code that's required, not execute the program. You don't need to worry about making sure the correct input is passed in.

great heres the next question Print “C# Rocks!” if language equals “C#” otherwise print language + “ is not C#.” So if I entered "Cheese" then "Cheese is not C#" would be printed to the screen.

string language = Console.ReadLine();

if(language == "C#") { System.Console.WriteLine("C# Rocks!"); } else { System.Console.Write("language + "is not C#.");

} this is what I wrote . am I trying to do something it is not asking for

You have an extra " before the language variable.

Stackoverflow.com is great. There are other sites depending on what type of application you are developing.

The following table describes my room temperature preferences. Print the message from the table when a user enters a number in the corresponding range. For example, if temperature is 21 the code should print "Just right." to the screen. Temperature (°C) Message Less than 21° Too cold! 21° to 22° Just right. Greater than 22° Too hot!

string input = Console.ReadLine(); int temperature = int.Parse(input);

if (temperature < 21 ) { System.Console.Write("Too cold!"); } else if (temperature = 21) { System.Console.Write("Just right."); } else if (temperature = 22) { System.Console.Write("Just right."); } else { System.Console.Write("Too hot!") }

this is my code what am I doing wrong?

You should open a new question for each of these and mark correct answers as answer.

In any case. Take a look at your if (temperature { if condition. It's not correct.
