Courses Plus Student 1,554 PointsDid you throw an exception when the value is less than 0 or greater than 20? code seems valid
I wrote this using the following code: int value = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
try { if (value < 0 || value > 20) { throw new System.Exception(); } else { Console.WriteLine(string.Format("You entered {0}",value)); } } catch(Exception) { Console.WriteLine("That value is outside the allowable range"); }
When run outside with valid tests the code works properly, but I still cannot submit the answer as solved. am I missing something?
int value = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
try
{
if (value < 0 || value > 20)
{
Console.WriteLine("That value is outside the allowable range");
throw new System.Exception();
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine(string.Format("You entered {0}",value));
}
}
catch(Exception)
{
Console.WriteLine("That value is outside the allowable range");
}

Courses Plus Student 1,554 PointsI ended up figuring it out. I was just supposed to throw the error, I was not supposed to handle the error. No try/catch block was needed
