if(fruit <3)

Answer 1

First, in code coaches or other coding challenge problems, you dont need to print any text or prompt, the problem only needs the output.

And if you want to output the value of a variable, omit the ampersand (&)

// It should be
printf("%d", var)
// And not
printf("%d", &var)

If you need more explanations, please feel free to ask. Thanks.
