Hey /g/uys, I'm working on a little C# console app that

Fuck I forgot code:
namespace faggots
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{

try {
Console.WriteLine("This code is written by Your asshole!");
Console.WriteLine("Please type in your birthday in MM/DD/YYYY format, and press the Enter key.");


while (true)

{
string userValue;

userValue = Console.ReadLine();
DateTime myValue = DateTime.Now;
DateTime myBirthday = DateTime.Parse(userValue);
TimeSpan myAge = DateTime.Now.Subtract(myBirthday);




Console.WriteLine("Your age in days is:");
Console.WriteLine(myAge.TotalDays);
}
}

catch(Exception e)
{
Console.WriteLine("Please enter valid date in MM/DD/YYYY format. {0}", e.Message);
}
finally
{
Console.WriteLine();
}

Console.ReadLine();

}
}
}

shiggy diggy I can't even post the code in here the right way

#!/usr/bin/env bash
DATEfirstnum = `date -d "2014/5/14" +"%j"`
DATElastnum = `date -d "12/31/14" +"%j"`
DAYSdif=$(($DATElastnum - $DATEfirstnum))
echo $DAYSdir

I'm not really sure what this means, I mean I understand what it is doing

If the user enters an invalid entry the method that throws an exception is DateTime.Parse. Put that method in a try/catch block.

Thank you, I could not figure out what exception to use so I just used the general one. How do I get it to run the while loop again once the user enters a new value?

Here is the updated code

Because I'm bored

void Main()
{
    Console.WriteLine("Licensed under Wizard License v1.0");    
    
    DateTime bday = DateTime.MinValue;
    bool invalidInput = true;
    do
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Type your b/day");
        string userValue = Console.ReadLine();
        invalidInput = !DateTime.TryParse(userValue, System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, System.Globalization.DateTimeStyles.AssumeUniversal,out bday);
    } while(invalidInput);
    Console.WriteLine("Your age in days is {0}", DateTime.Today.Subtract(bday).Days);    
}

If you have the time, would you mind explaining to me how this works?

What if it was only to get your attention?

>>50813960
you could have gotten our attention without frogposting, but frogposting will only give you negative attention.

>>50813979
never again ;-;

>>50813865
What is there to explain? Read up on do-while loop. TryParse returns true if the parse was successful, and if so, stores the parsed value in out bday.

I used invariant culture so you could use your "DD/MM/YYYY" string and it would work like that everywhere.

At work so not reading the thread, but try adding a sleep at the end of the program. Windows closes console programs when execution is complete

>>50814054
Yeah never mind, I realize what you wrote now. Thank you very much for you help, I feel as if there is A LOT left for me to learn.
