Question

C# coding error with Cengage: MoveEstimator.cs(15,58): error CS1525: Unexpected symbol `total'
Compilation failed: 1 error(s), 0 warnings
Cannot open assembly 'MoveEstimator.exe': No such file or directory.

Here is my code and the prompt as well

Malcolm Movers charges a base rate of $200 per move plus $150 per hour and $2 per mile.

Write a program named MoveEstimator that prompts a user for and accepts estimates for the number of hours for a job and the number of miles involved in the move and displays the total moving fee.

Code:

using System;

using static System.Console;

class MoveEstimator

{

   static void Main()

   {

    int hours,miles,total;

    int sum=200;

Console.WriteLine("Enter the number of hours and miles for the job");

hours=int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());

miles=int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());

total=sum+(150*hours)+(2*miles);

Console.WriteLine("The total fee for Malcolm Movers is $" total);

Console.ReadLine();

   }

}

I tried making total equal to 0 as well. My problem is how does the file not exist? Where am I supposed to save it if it is on Cengage?

Answer 1

using System;

using static System.Console;

class MoveEstimator

{

static void Main()

{

int hours,miles,total;

int sum=200;

Console.WriteLine("Enter the number of hours and miles for the job");

hours=int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());

miles=int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());

total=sum+(150*hours)+(2*miles);

// + is missing in the print statement

Console.WriteLine("The total fee for Malcolm Movers is $"+ total);

Console.ReadLine();

}

}
