(Answered) Problem with java code

Question

I had a problem on the cheer creator code coach challenge. This is my code:

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Program
{
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
int x = sc.nextInt();
String a = "Ra!";
String repeated = a.repeat(x);

if (x > 10) {
System.out.println("High Five");
}
else if (x <= 0) {
System.out.println("shh");
}
else if (x <= 10) {
System.out.println(repeated);
}
}
}

Only test case 5 is failing. Please help.

Answer 1

Would this work? System.out.println (a.repeat(x));

Answer 2

Thanks it's working👍👍

Answer 3

Read task: shh is <1

Answer 4

Ok thanks

Answer 5

Its still failing

Answer 6

Yes, this way it fails. But I'm not sure why. There must be something wrong with these ELSE IF statements

Answer 7

Now I god it.
Negativ values throws a exception on a. repeat(x)
😉

Answer 8

How can i fix that

Answer 9

Think about it.
Now, you do the repeat for every input. That's not good for negativ input. Maybe there is a better place in the code, to do that?

Answer 10

Yes, this should work. At the right place.
Tipp: Copy your code to your playground (copy&paste). Write here code and test it. And then copy back to code coach and try it. Playground is better for testing. You can see outputs and error message.
