Not really sure what to do here. any help

I'm confused with how to format the syntax of try and catch clauses

Program.cs 
if (!(int value < 0 || int value > 20))
{
    throw new System.Exception();
}

try
{
    value = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());

Console.WriteLine(string.Format("You entered {0}",value));
}
catch(Exception)
{

}

You're over-thinking this. The challenge is just to create the code to throw the exception, you won't need to use "try" or "catch" here. A few more hints:

  • you code needs to go between the assignment and the output
  • since the variable has already been declared, you won't need the "int" keywords
  • recheck the test logic, the inversion is not needed
