I do not really understand the task, I have declared height but nothing happens .

Adding 10 to height and store it into height? 2 of 2

If I understand the question correctly , it is so that I'll add 10 in height , which in turn should be returned.

I have searched some but not been able to crack it. I saw two exempelar which is ( height + = 10; ) and another exemple ( height = height + 10 ;) . please help me , are going crazy =(

CodeChallenge.cs 
string heightInput = "168";
string height = "10";
int height = int.Parse(heightInpu);

Hey ahmad, you forgot to add a "t" to your variable heightInput. And 2nd task is asking you to add 10 to height and assign it back to height. What you are doing here just assigning the 10 value as a string to height. It is wrong here.

string heightInput = "168";
int height = int.Parse(heightInput);
height = height + 10;
