The only error is the bracket at the end. Just add a '}'. In the input box you have to seperate your input with the enter key: gender num Thats all I hope this helps you

No No ... plz ignore the small mistakes (if there are ) like semicolon etc. ( as I said it's only a piece of a bigger code ) Plz tell me why it's not working (if you understood what I want from the the code ) and what changes can be made. thnx for the answers...

Well... actually the "small mistakes" aren't small if they prevent the code from compiling. With the brackets fixed the code is working. Maybe you could add something in the last if condition to just output the text when gender is actually male or female to add more statements you can use logic operators if (x == 0 && y > 0){ // && -> and } But first you need to fix the "small mistakes"

The last bracket isn't the only mistake... Error messages depending brackets need to be taken with a grain of salt. It's more a hint that there is something wrong with brackets. The line number doesn't really point to a direct location in such a scenario.
