The exercise asks for " Inside of the loop, call the CreateTemplate() method. It takes a number as a parameter that represents what week it is within the project so that when the template is generated it will say Week X at the top, with X representing which week it is."

I managed to call the Method 16 times with
for (int week = 0; week < 16; week++)

  {
    CreateTemplate(16);
  }

This way though in the console it always prints “Week 16”.
How do i make it increment by one each week???

For anyone who might have the same issue as me, here’s the answer:
using System;

namespace ForLoop
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string args)
{
for (int week = 0; week < 16; week++)
{
CreateTemplate(week+1);
}

}

static void CreateTemplate(int week)
{
  Console.WriteLine($"Week {week}");
  Console.WriteLine("Announcements: \n \n \n ");
  Console.WriteLine("Report Backs: \n \n \n");
  Console.WriteLine("Discussion Items: \n \n \n");
}

}
}

Here a similar solution :slight_smile:

for (int week = 1; week < 17; week++)
{
CreateTemplate(week);
}

You should use less or equal sign instead.

for (int i = 0; i <= 16; i++)
 {
   CreateTemplate(i);
 }
type or paste code here
```using System;

namespace ForLoop
{
  class Program
  {
    static void Main(string[] args)
    { 
      for (int number = 0; number < 16; number++)
      {
        CreateTemplate(number + 1);
      }

    }
    
    static void CreateTemplate(int week)
    {
      Console.WriteLine($"Week {week}");
      Console.WriteLine("Announcements: \n \n \n ");
      Console.WriteLine("Report Backs: \n \n \n");
      Console.WriteLine("Discussion Items: \n \n \n");
    }
    
    
  }
}

using System;

namespace ForLoop

{

class Program

{

static void Main(string[] args)

{

  for (int weeklyMeeting = 0; weeklyMeeting < 16; weeklyMeeting++) 

  {

    CreateTemplate(weeklyMeeting + 1);

  }

  

}



static void CreateTemplate(int week)

{

  Console.WriteLine($"Week {week}");

  Console.WriteLine("Announcements: \n \n \n ");

  Console.WriteLine("Report Backs: \n \n \n");

  Console.WriteLine("Discussion Items: \n \n \n");

}

}

}

using System;

namespace ForLoop
{
  class Program
  {
    static void Main(string[] args)
    { 
      for(int i = 1; i <= 16; i++)
      {
        CreateTemplate(i);
      }
    }
    
    static void CreateTemplate(int week)
    {
      Console.WriteLine($"Week {week}");
      Console.WriteLine("Announcements: \n \n \n ");
      Console.WriteLine("Report Backs: \n \n \n");
      Console.WriteLine("Discussion Items: \n \n \n");
    }
  }
