It does not exit the program after saying your too young to use the program

int age = 12;
         if (age < 13) {
            //Insert Exit Code
            console.printf("Sorry; you must be at least 13 to use this program.\n");
            System.exit(0);
    }

Was my code... but it won't exit the program after the Sorry; you must be at least 13 to use this program

Could you please post your code like that:

//empty line

(3 times the symbol under the escape)

//code

(3 times the symbol under the escape)

//empty line

So it's easier to read. Thanks :)

That code is perfect. It won't actually tell you that it's exiting unless you make it. Is it going on to the program anyway? If not, it's working.

Can you post your entire code so we can take a look? Sometimes it is something rather small that makes a huge difference.

When posting, please follow the Markdown Cheatsheat referenced below the text box for posting your code.

Thanks,
