You might need to make your loop work differently.

Think about what your program would do if the user asked for 0 outputs. You might want to check if any more are needed before you write each one. The loop itself gives you a handy way to make a test before each iteration if you put a test expression in the parentheses after the while (instead of "true").

And the challenge didn't ask for the outputs to be numbered. You might want to avoid doing anything not asked for to prevent confusing the checking system.

Also, these challenges tend to be very picky about output strings, and it looks like you left off the period at the end of the error message.
