SORRY ABOUT THE CAPS BUT IPAD WONT TURN THE CAPS OFF. TRYING TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM AND ALL THE CASES BUT 1 AND 4 ARE NOT SOLVED. WHAT CAN I DO?

Answer 1

it is now solved. thanks simba and rik wittkopp!

Answer 2

Simba 🤣😂🤣
I couldn't see the wood because of the trees

Answer 3

Lol it's "Invalid age"
"A" should be lower case in age 😅

Answer 4

Given an age as input, you need to output the age group according to the following categories:
Child: 0 - 11
Teen: 12 - 17
Adult: 18 - 64
Senior: 65+

In case the age is negative, you need to output "Invalid age".

Sample Input:
42

Sample Output:
Adult

this is the question

Answer 6

it is actually test case 4 and 6

Answer 7

First thing I noted, the challenge is looking for Teen, you are returning Teenager.

If this doesn't fix everything, then look at your age brackets.
What if a child is age 11.5, (unlikely as input is int, not double)

Answer 8

now the only test that does not work is #4

Answer 9

i modified the age groups too and here is my code:

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
var age = readLine()!!.toInt();

var result = when {
age <= 11.9-> "Child";
age > 11 && age <= 17.9-> "Teen";
age > 17 && age <= 64.9 -> "Adult";
age > 65 -> "Senior";
else -> "Invalid Age";

}
println(result);
}

Answer 10

Check your senior value.
You have >65, but senior includes age 65

Answer 11

i modified senior

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
var age = readLine()!!.toInt();

var result = when {
age <= 11.9-> "Child";
age > 11 && age <= 17.9-> "Teen";
age > 17 && age <= 64.9 -> "Adult";
age > 64 -> "Senior";
else -> "Invalid Age";

}
println(result);
}

Answer 12

I checked the input for decimals which won't be accepted because of readLine!!toInt()

Your last code has a mistake in the Child line.

Try this:

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
var age = readLine()!!.toInt();

var result = when {
age >=0 && age < 12 -> "Child";
age >= 12 && age < 18 -> "Teen";
age >= 18 && age < 65 -> "Adult";
age >= 65 -> "Senior";
else -> "Invalid Age";

}
println(result);
}

Answer 13

i just did that and test #4 still not works

Answer 14

Can you DM me your code so I can review?

Answer 15

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
var age = readLine()!!.toInt();

var result = when {
age >0 && age < 12 -> "Child";
age >= 12 && age < 18 -> "Teen";
age >= 18 && age < 65 -> "Adult";
age >= 65 -> "Senior";
else -> "Invalid Age";

}
println(result);
}

here is my code.

Answer 16

Try this:

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
var age = readLine()!!.toInt();

var result = when {
age >= 0 && age < 12 -> "Child";
age >= 12 && age < 18 -> "Teen";
age >= 18 && age < 65 -> "Adult";
age >= 65 -> "Senior";
else -> "Invalid Age";

}
println(result);
}

Answer 17

test case #4 still does not works.

Answer 18

Scratching my head here.
We are close!
I going to have a think for a bit

Answer 19

ok

Answer 20

Think I found it!
Change "Invalid Age" to "Invalid age"

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
var age = readLine()!!.toInt();

var result = when {
age >= 0 && age < 12 -> "Child";
age >= 12 && age < 18 -> "Teen";
age >= 18 && age < 65 -> "Adult";
age >= 65 -> "Senior";
else -> "Invalid age";

}
println(result);
}
