The fourth workshop for Thinking Like A Programmer is now available. Do be sure to do the earlier workshops first, however – at least make sure you have bronze medals on these before attempting this one.
Follow this link to log in and do the workshop.
under the shopping list challenge for the silver medal I keep getting the error message “Your program still seems to be stopping at 0…!” when attempting for the silver medal
However when I run my code it works as required producing the correct outcome.
here is my code:
display “enter price of item”
get price
repeat
display “price of item”
display price
get newprice
set price = newprice + price
until newprice == -1
if (newprice == -1)
set price = price + 1
display price
endif
I am not entirely sure how to avoid adding the -1 at the end which I believe is the reason for the error. I’ve been stuck on this for a while and really need some help. Thanks.
