The variable 'entry' is assigned but its value never used

I even tried copying and pasting the code provided on the site, but still got this error:

"Program.cs(11,18): warning CS0219: The variable 'entry' is assigned but its value never used"

It prompts for "Enter how many minutes you exercised", but when I put 30 in, it says "treehouse: ~/workspace$"

:point_right: That's not an actual "error", that's a compiler warning.

So it doesn't stop the process, but it's a good hint that there may be something wrong in the code.

For a further analysis of the issue, post your (properly formatted) code, or use the snapshot function in the workspace and provide the link to that.

Thanks Steven, I closed the code that triggered that warning, but will include a snapshot or the formatted code next time!
