Question

I just need help understanding the assignment and what I need o correct.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace SoloLearn
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
HashSet<string> candidates = new HashSet<string>();

candidates.Add("John");
candidates.Add("Amelie");
candidates.Add("Tom");
candidates.Add("Richard");
candidates.Add("Barbara");
candidates.Add("Susan");
candidates.Add("Charles");
candidates.Add("Daniel");
candidates.Add("Tamara");
candidates.Add("Donald");

HashSet<string> hiring = new HashSet<string>();

while (hiring.Count<3)
{
string hire = Console.ReadLine();
//add the names to hiring hash set
candidates.Add(Console.ReadLine(hiring));

}
//your code goes here

if(hiring.IsSubsetOf(candidates))
{
Console.WriteLine("Starting hiring process");
} else
{
Console.WriteLine("Something is wrong");
}
}
}
}

It's great that you have attached your code, but what is the expected output vs input

Answer 3

Is this challenge 79.3, Hiring Engineers?

Answer 4

Thanks for getting back with this info.

The problem you had was that the challenge requires you to Add the value "hire" into the hashset "hiring" 3 times as per the while loop.

You were trying to use the readLine method 3 times to add to the hashset candidates.

The rest of your code is excellent as it takes the items within the hashset "hiring" & compares it as a subset to the hashset "candidates" with the appropriate outputs.

This little adaptation to your code may help

while (hiring.Count<3)
{
string hire = Console.ReadLine();
//add the names to hiring hash set
hiring.Add(hire);

Thank you for your help!

Answer 6

Hey, I just got home from work. Here is the expect out come.

We are hiring programmers on our team. There are 10 candidates, and we need to choose 3 of them.
In the program you are given, you have 10 candidates in a hash set. You need to take 3 names as input, add them to a new hiring hash set and check if they are present in our candidates set.
If they are, the program should output "Starting hiring process", otherwise, "Something is wrong".

Sample Input
John
Susan
Daniel

Sample Output
Starting hiring process
IsSubsetOf() returns true if the hash set is a subset of the specified collection.
