3,566 PointsStuck again, I tried the try-catch method but somehow I managed to confuse myself.
I must be missing something in the code, but for the life of me I can't figure out what it is. Any kind soul on Treehouse willing to give me a hand with this? It will be greatly appreciated, Thank you.
using System;
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
class Program
{
static void Main()
{
System.Console.WriteLine("Enter the number of times to print \"Yay!\": ");
var numOfTimes = System.Console.ReadLine();
try
{
int num = int.Parse(numOfTimes);
for (int i=0; i<num; i++) {
System.Console.WriteLine("\"Yay!\"");
}
catch (FormatException){
System.Console.WriteLine("You must enter a whole number.");
}
}
}
}
}

Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Graduate 50,856 PointsHey Luis,
your code is alright but one bracket was wrong. Also always make sure to indent your code correctly, this will make it easier to see such errors.
using System;
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
class Program
{
static void Main()
{
System.Console.WriteLine("Enter the number of times to print \"Yay!\": ");
var numOfTimes = System.Console.ReadLine();
try
{
int num = int.Parse(numOfTimes);
for (int i=0; i<num; i++) {
System.Console.WriteLine("\"Yay!\"");
} // Bracket was missing right here!
}
catch (FormatException)
{
System.Console.WriteLine("You must enter a whole number.");
}
}
}
// One bracket too much here!
}
