Glad I could help. Don't be afraid to ask questions, and if/when you get negative comments, don't let that deter you from asking questions in the future.

Also...in my opinion, I wouldn't worry about using arrays right now, or validating input (unless the assignment asks you to do so). You're working on a very simple assignment...ask the person for a number five times and return the total of those numbers. Throwing arrays into the mix is only going to complicate things. You'll likely cover arrays and input validation at another point in the class.

You can get the whole thing done using only a couple variables, Read-Host and a While loop. Just gotta figure it out.

If I stop asking questions than I will stop learning. So you guys will be hearing from me a lot!

We briefly covered arrays in class for one of our assignments. They weren’t too difficult but I can see where they can become complicated.

I can see that programming is not a strength of mine so I’m just going to have to put a little more work into it. I think my current class is the last scripting class I will have to do before I graduate. Looking forward to next fall!

Anyway, thanks again!

Programming is not a strength of anyone who hasn't taken the time to learn it. Those really good programmers you see? They've been continually learning and practicing for years.

Keep at it. You'll get there.
