How do I fix my snail in the well code

Question

function main() {
var depth = parseInt(readLine(), 10);
//your code goes here
var Distance_up = 7;
var DistanceDown = 2;
var distance_covered = Distance_up - DistanceDown;
position = 0;
days = 0;
while (position < depth){
DailyDepth = depth ;
days++ ;
position += Distance_up ;
position -= DistanceDown;
if (position >DailyDepth) {
position -= Distance_up
position -= DistanceDown;
break ;
}
}

console.log(days);
}
My expected output is 9 instead of 8

Yeah

Answer 4

function main() {
var depth = parseInt(readLine(), 10);
//your code goes here
var Distance_up = 7;
var DistanceDown = 2;
//var distance_covered = Distance_up - DistanceDown;
position = 0;
days = 0;
while (position <= depth){
//DailyDepth = depth ;
days++ ;
position += Distance_up ;
position -= DistanceDown;
if (position > depth) {
//position -= Distance_up
// position -= DistanceDown;
break ;
}
}

console.log(days);
}

Answer 5

I removed the extra lines from your code, keeping the same functionality. you should not add 7 feet and immediately subtract two. add 7 feet, add a new day, then do a distance check. if it is greater than or equal to the height of the well, you are out. if not, subtract 2 feet and return to the beginning
