Thread: C# compute program

Hi,

I have written this new code but it is not working and i am not able to debug the program as there is some syntax error. As I am new to C# programming I am not sure where I am going wrong

Code:

{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            String response;
            Double labor = 0, cost = 0, lc, pc, tc, total = 0;
            int count = 0;
            do
            {
                Console.WriteLine("Please Enter the Customer Name or quit to end: ");
                response = Console.ReadLine();

                if (response != "quit")
                {
                    Console.WriteLine("Please Enter hours of labor: ");
                    labor = Console.Read();
                    Console.WriteLine("Please Enter cost of parts: ");
                    cost = Console.Read();
                    lc = labor * 35;
                    pc = cost + 0.5;
                    tc = lc + pc;
                    total = total + tc;
                    Console.WriteLine("Customer  :   " + response);
                    Console.WriteLine("Labor Cost:   " + lc);
                    Console.WriteLine("Parts Cost:   " + pc);
                    Console.WriteLine();
                    count = count + 1;
                }
                Console.Write("The total cost is {0:c} ", total);
                Console.Write(" for " + count + " customers.");
                Console.Write();
            } while (response != "quit");

        }
    }
}

the output that I am giving is

if I enter a cust name it will run the 'if' loop and if I type quit then it will just show the total and end the loop....

And I am not able to get any output of any sort there is no error in the code but it is not working

And what is the difference between what you are seeing and what you expect to see?
