bool success = (downcased == "donuts");

double total = 0.0;
You need the fractional point to make it double. Otherwise its just an integer!

Courses Plus Student 2,623 PointsNot really. In your example it doesn't matter if you input 0 or 0.0 since the left side of the equal sign already states that the variable is of type double. However if declaring the variable using var you are correct.
double total = 0; // total will be a double since it is explicitly declared as a double.
var total = 0; // total will be of type int since right side is an int.
var total = 0.0; // total will be of type double since right side is a double.
The last one is the correct answer in this challenge.
