Your code could not be compiled

What's the problem here?

CodeChallenge.cs 
using System;
string input = Console.ReadLine();
int temperature = int.Parse(input);
if (temperature < 21)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Too cold!");
}
else if (temperature == 21)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Just right.");
}
else if (temperature > 21)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Too hot!");
}

According to the chart in the instructions, you should get "just right" for both 21 and 22.

Also, you don't need a third "if". The last case can be handled by a plain "else".
