While going through this lesson, section 2 lecture 20, I inputted the void NextGuess function at the bottom. Afterward I went to check just like in the video and my game now doesn’t work/doesn’t run. I have looked at the code and made sure to have every space, line, even capitalization right but the game will not run. Am I able to get a little help figuring out what went wrong? It will not let me upload the script file, but it is an exact copy of this page (except 18-27 is not skipped)

Hey Kyle, how are you?
The problem is that the if and the first else if under the Update method don’t have an closing brace.

Nice spot @Joao_Dalvi. 
@Kyle_Carter, here’s an example (have to scroll down a bit for the if / else if);

Hey I am doing fine! Just a little confusion since I am new to this. The link showed some similar things (in the lessong) https://github.com/CompleteUnityDeveloper/02-Number-Wizard-Console/commit/0dcb7a7c505d4a3c17a5fdfe64b6140cde0415c1
But I think I closed off the brackets and still there is an error. Tell me if I am wrong. Again I apologize for not understanding that well for coding things at the moment. Hoping to change that though!

Hi Kyle,
Where you have this…
}
{ else if
change it to be more like this…
} else if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.DownArrow))
{
…obviously changing the condition that you are checking in between the opening and closing brackets ( ) as appropriate in each case…
The curly braces are used to indicate code blocks… so in the case of the if / else if statement
if (some condition is met)
{
// run this bit of code between the curly braces
// semi-colons are needed on the ends of the lines of code in these blocks
}
else if (some other condition is met)
{
// run this bit of code between the curly braces instead
Debug.Log("This is an example");
}
