end of C# quiz

I can't figure out what I'm writing wrong. this is what I'm putting in

string language = Console.ReadLine();

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

}

CodeChallenge.cs 
string language = Console.ReadLine();

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

}

Christopher;

Remember that when we concatenate strings extra spaces must typically be put in ourselves. If you include a space at the beginning of "is not C#" and make it " is not C#" your code seems to work fine.

Happy coding,
Ken
