I am not sure what exactly needs to be done.
using System;
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
class Program
{
static void Main()
{
input = Console.ReadLine();
if (input == "quit")
{
string output = "Goodbye.";
}
else
{
string output = "You entered " + input + ".";
}
Console.WriteLine(output);
}
}
}

21,500 PointsYou need to declare the variable input and output
using System;
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
class Program
{
static void Main()
{
string input = Console.ReadLine(); // declare the variable
string output = ""; // declare the variable
if (input == "quit")
{
output = "Goodbye."; // remove the string
}
else
{
output = "You entered " + input + "."; // remove the string
}
Console.WriteLine(output);
}
}
}

231,236 PointsThere are actually three issues, requiring a minimum of four changes:
- the variable input must be declared when (or before) it is assigned
- the variable output must be declared in the widest scope it is used (*Main()" in this case)
- inside the test blocks, output should be assigned but not declared
Geovanie's code is a complete solution, so you can see all these items fixed in it.

16,510 PointsYes, this task is all about declaring the variables and doing so in such a way that they are in scope when you use them.
