Courses Plus Student 1,298 Pointswarning CS0642: Possible mistaken empty statement
I'm not sure what else needs to be in the else clause for this code challenge. Any ideas? Anybody?
using System;
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
class Program
{
static void Main()
{
string input = Console.ReadLine();
if (input == "quit")
{
Console.WriteLine("Goodbye.");
}
else if ()
{
Console.WriteLine = "You entered " + input + ".";
}
Console.WriteLine(input);
}
}
}

56,413 PointsYou're pretty close but you're you have an empty if statement after the else, and no parentheses for the WriteLine call. The else should be used alone if there's no other condition you need to check.
if (input == "quit")
{
Console.WriteLine("Goodbye.");
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine ("You entered " + input + ".");
}

Courses Plus Student 1,298 PointsOh, thank you. I was over-analyzing it thinking I needed to put something for the output too.
