28,558 PointsLooking at your code it's pretty clear that you have copied the second example and used that as a starting point for the two new variables. Which is fine, but you have forgotten to modify a pretty key part of the code you copied which is the body of the if
statements. It is within those if
statements that you actually assign the variables to the weatherForecast
object.
If you change the bodies of those if
statements as well like this:
double PrecipitationChance;
if (double.TryParse(values[4], out PrecipitationChance))
{
weatherForecast.PrecipitationChance = PrecipitationChance;
}
double PrecipitationAmount;
if (double.TryParse(values[5], out PrecipitationAmount))
{
weatherForecast.PrecipitationAmount = PrecipitationAmount;
}
Then your code will pass. Though one thing I'd like to mention is that in C# variables are usually not named in PascalCase (every word capitalized), but are instead named in camelCase (every word expect the first one capitalized). Following naming standards like that will make your code easier to read and understand by other coders.
