329 PointsConvert the string in heightInput to an integer using int.Parse. Store the result in a variable named height.
Why is my code failing?
string heightInput = "168";
int height = int.parse(heightInput + entry);

- instead of "int.Parse" (capital "P"), you have "int.parse" (lower-case "p")
- there is nothing defined by the name of "entry" and that was also not part of the instructions

329 PointsHaha, so dumb (of me). I see that now. I know the + entry is not supposed to be listed. Below is the correct code. Thank you Steven for responding to me question.
string heightInput = "168"; int height = int.parse(heightInput);
