how can i fix this Variables-CodePudding

I am a junior programmer and I think that I'm making a stupid mistake in C#

    Console.WriteLine("What do you call a line of people who want to punch you?");
    string answer = ("The punch line");
    Console.ReadLine();
    if (Console.ReadLine(answer))
    {
    Console.WriteLine("correct");
    }

CodePudding user response：

string input = Console.ReadLine();
if (input.Equals(answer))
{
    Console.WriteLine("correct");
}

Save the user input to a variable and compare that to the answer string.

CodePudding user response：

You aren't checking the user's input. Try this:

    Console.WriteLine("What do you call a line of people who want to punch you?");
    string answer = ("The punch line");
    string input = Console.ReadLine();
    if (answer == input)
    {
    Console.WriteLine("correct");
    }
