int playersNumber = -1;

while (playersNumber < 0 || playersNumber > 10)
{
Console.WriteLine("Enter a number between 0 and 10");
string playersResponse = Console.ReadLine();
playersNumber = Convert.ToInt32(playersResponse);

}

i entered this and it said it should keep looping until i enter a number between 0-10.

all i see on the console when i run "Enter a number between 0 and 10"

shouldn't i be seeing like -1 every like second going down the console until i enter a number between 0-10..?

also another quesion: int playersNumber; <— needs a value, why isn't it giving me an error O.O. usually it tells me it needs a value.

int playersNumber;

do
{
Console.WriteLine("Enter a number between 0 and 10");
string playersResponse = Console.ReadLine();
playersNumber = Convert.ToInt32(playersResponse);

}
while (playersNumber < 0 || playersNumber > 10);

Console.ReadKey();

You would think that's what would happen, but no. The command 'Console.ReadLine();' in 'string playersResponse = Console.ReadLine();' causes the computer to wait until you enter a number and press enter.

hmhmh i see.

also this makes no sense to me.
everytime i click any key on my keyboard it enters the key and a random number…
where in this code does it tell me that everytime i clcik a key it will enter a random number?

int numberThatCausesProblems = 54;

for (int x = 1; x <= 100; x++)
{
Console.WriteLine(x);
Console.ReadKey();

if (x == numberThatCausesProblems)
{
break;
}
