I managed to find the challenge--to receive faster answers, I recommend mentioning which challenge/course you are referencing, so that people know exactly which task you're discussing.
For this step, you need to add 10 to height. There are two common ways one might go about solving this:
height = height + 10;
Or
height += 10;
string heightInput = "168";
int height = int.Parse(heightInput);
height += 10;
Hope this helps!

5,342 PointsFrom what it sounds like to me, you should just add 10 to the height. So it will look like this.
string heightInput = "168"; int height = int.Parse(heightInput); height = height + 10;
You can also do it this way string heightInput = "168"; int height = int.Parse(heightInput); height += 10;
