C# basics: I keep winding up with compiling errors while attempting to run my code. Any help?

That's a direct URL to your workspace, it's temporary and only exists while you are using it.

:information_source: But you can use the snapshot function in the workspace and provide the link to that.

The snapshot works perfectly, and persists when you're not using your workspace.

You have a few issues causing compile errors:

  • on line 9, you assign runningTotal before it has been declared. Did you forget to put "int" or "var" in front?
  • on line 18 you have another undeclared variable named quit. Did you mean to put quotes around that?
  • on line 36 you have "elseif", but you probably intended to write "else if" (with a space in between)
  • on line 45 you have a stray equal sign between WriteLine and the parentheses that enclose the arguments.

It looks like you will still have a bit of work to do after that, but fixing these should get it to compile.
