You have a typo: readLine needs a capital L

In general, the message "Task n is no longer passing" usually means a syntax error has been introduced.

Chris is right. The message is just a little unhelpful. If I got that message, i'd assume that my code compiled and I was getting a logical error. The messages and verification on these challenges can be a little bit odd sometimes.
