The program you are given defines an array with 10 words and takes a letter as input. Write a program to iterate through the array and output words containing the taken letter. If there is no such word, the program should output "No match". Sample Input u Sample Output fun //////////////////////////////// using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; namespace Code_Coach_Challenge { class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { string[] words = { "home", "programming", "victory", "C#", "football", "sport", "book", "learn", "dream", "fun" }; string letter = Console.ReadLine(); for (int count = 0; count < 10; count++) { if (words.Contains(letter)) { Console.WriteLine(words[count]); } else { Console.WriteLine("No match") ; } } } } }

Hello, you want to call the index of the words array. Here you just call the entire name array. Change the if statement from: if (words.Contains(letter)) to : if(words[count].Contains(letter))

Yes, thats because you have an unnessary else statement. You didnt ask that in your question. Just delete else { no match}. To get no match for the overall loop, just add a separate if statement to check at the end.

Jibraeel Abdelwahhab Thankfully that gave the output however not exactly how the question asked for. I wanted to get elements only if the condition is met, but it is now showing "No output" along with it.

Jibraeel Abdelwahhab for example I only wanted the words if the letter matched them and that is it.

I just tested the code, I'm not sure what you mean. Are you talking about No Match? or is it not giving output at all?

For example. For the letter 'u', the expected output is only "fun" but for me it is showing: "No match No match No match No match No match No match No match No match No match Fun"

Understood what you said but unable to figure out the condition which I should use in the separate if statement.
