7,298 Points<SOLVED> System.Console.Write won't print
System.Console.Write doesn't print, even when I save the Program.cs file. The console error reads, 'bash: ncs: command not found.'
Here's my code:
class Program
{
// This is the first method that is called in the program.
static void Main()
{
// Prompt the user for minutes exercised.
System.Console.Write("Enter how many minutes you exercised: ");
// Add minutes exercised to total.
// Display total minutes exercised to the screen.
// Request until user quits.
}
}

1,780 PointsIn the console did you wrote only Program.cs ? If yes, you forgot to put the mcs first.
So it should be: mcs Program.cs and then of course mono Program.exe.
Hope I helped.

7,298 PointsYep, got it. I made the mistake of putting ncs Program.cs instead of mcs Program.cs.

7,298 PointsNever mind. Realized my (silly) mistake: I should have typed 'mcs Program.cs', not 'ncs Program.cs'.
