Am I doing it wrong? if/else/else if

Need a bit of help with these if else if else's

CodeChallenge.cs
string input = Console.ReadLine();
int temperature = int.Parse(input);


if(input < 21)
{
    System.Console.WriteLine("Too cold!");

}
else 
{

   System.Console.WriteLine("Just right.");


}
else if (input > 22)
{
      System.Console.WriteLine("Too hot!"); 
}

I haven't got to this exercise yet but I think your code should look like this

string input = Console.ReadLine(); int temperature = int.Parse(input);

if(input < 21) { System.Console.WriteLine("Too cold!");

}else {

System.Console.WriteLine("Just right.");

}else if(input>22)

{ System.Console.WriteLine("Too hot!"); }

string input = Console.ReadLine(); int temperature = int.Parse(input); if(temperature < 21) { Console.WriteLine("Too Cold!"); } else if(temperature >=21 && temperature < 23) //you can also use (temperature >=21 && temperature <=22) { Console.WriteLine("Just right."); } else {
Console.WriteLine("Too hot!" ); }
