error in the lessons.

When doing the conditional ints end code test there is an error with the checking program.

If you did the following:

int numberOfPeople = 3; if (numberOfPeople < 4) { console.printf("Your table is ready \n"); } system.exit(0);

The system.exit(0); variable is outside of the {}'s but it would still pass the test, This may confuse others to thinking this is the correct way to place that variable.

I don't really see the error.. Could you elaborate on this?

// This is the Int statement int numberOfPeople = 3; //this is the if statement if (numberOfPeople < 3) { console.printf("your table is ready \n") } // The System.exit(0) is outside the {} brackets System.exit(0);

Surely if this was run in the console it would not pass, However during the end of video test it would allow you to pass even if it was entered like the above? Or does it not matter where the System.exit(0); Goes?
