IS this web site learn us how to use differents langages without any knowledge ? or not

#117

Not at the moment, you’ll have a basic default template code which help you with input and loop of each language, but for the specifics, you’ll have to use google, which will provides you with dozens of tutorials.

Keep coding :wink:

Hello,
I’m trying to compile this code in C# and get error msg “Input string was not in a correct format”.

int? dist1 = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine()); // distance to enemy 1
            int? dist2 = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine()); // distance to enemy 2

Here I am testing first case - If one enemy is empty or distance is null, should return another enemy.

if ((dist1.Value==null) ||(String.IsNullOrEmpty(enemy1)))
 Console.WriteLine(enemy2);
            else if ((dist2.Value == null) || (String.IsNullOrEmpty(enemy2)))
            Console.WriteLine(enemy1);

Please help me

Hi,
In this problem I´m trying to use C language,I acomplished the first part, but can´t solve the second one because the fifth spaceship hits me…How can I do to make my canon faster?

#123

You can’t.
You shoot each turn and you must shoot the nearest enemy.

#124

I´m pretty sure I´m shooting the nearest enemy…Still can´t find any error…
