Dear RuZombieSlayer,
ww made four observations, and all of them were correct:
- You're using the wrong sigil,
- using an inapropriate comment marker,
- and providing nothing to prompt the user to enter a value.
- This looks like homework
He did not say it was homework; he said it looked like homework. And it does.
The fact that it is not homework is largely irrelevant.
We are here to help, but only an open mind receives new information. An angry mind prone to taking everything personally is rarely open in any useful manner.
Please consider the possibility that when you are asking for help, sometimes even your question will be part of the problem, and the only way you're going to get past it is to approach the problem with humility -- of the "maybe I could be wrong" variety.
Responses like yours demonstrate the absence of the necessary mindset.
If these words are not helpful for you, I will recede.
Wishing you the very best in all things.
