Can't get the while to work or the catch.
Thanks in advance.
using System;
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
class Program
{
static void Main()
{
string input = Console.ReadLine();
try
{
Console.Write("Enter the number of times to print \"Yay!\": . You must enter a whole number.");
}
int count = int.Parse(input);
int i = 0;
while(i < count)
{
Console.WriteLine("Yay!");
i += 1;
catch (Exception)
{
Console.WriteLine("You must enter a whole number.");
}
}
}
}
}

Also, the "catch" should immediately follow the "try" block.
