Convert String to int in C#

Question

I am trying to write a simple program that asks the user to enter a number and then I will use that number to decide what the cost of the ticket will be for their given age.

Answer 1

Try the int.TryParse(...) method. It doesn't throw an exception.

Also, you should use && not & in your conditions. && is logical AND and & is bitwise AND.
