Can you help me figure out what I'm doing wrong?

Question

static void Main(string[] args)
{
int Male;
int Female;
Console.WriteLine("Are you male or female?");
Female = female;
Male = male;
Console.ReadLine();
if Console.ReadLine = male;
return Male;

else if Console.ReadLine = female;
return Female;
}
This is my code that I'm having issues with. I don't get what I'm doing wrong. It's C# coding and I'm confused. Help

Answer 1

The function Console.ReadLine() returns a value. You need to store that value in a variable in order to access it later. Good luck with future learning!

Answer 2

@Luke thanks for the tip but since the codes in main I didn't need the brackets, the code still works without them, and this is solved already :)

Answer 3

I have and I can't seem to find out what's wrong with my code, I've went through the course twice and I can't find my issue. please don't comment unless u know the issue I may have and Goodluck on python

Answer 4

thank you, it helped clear some of my problems I set Console.ReadLine(); to male and to female and when the user input male or female it calls upon the if and else if statements. Thank you for that clear up

Answer 5

It seems there are a few things here which you might benefit from by going through the lessons once more.

Answer 6

Where you write int male and int female, write string male and string female. (Int means numbers and string means letters and words).

Answer 7

Where you write the if and else if statements, go like this:

if __________ {
____________
} else if _____ {
____________
}

Notice the curly brackets. ( {} )
