Why does check50 not find any input request, yet the program clearly works as intended in the IDE? The code clearly shows that the program requests input.

Here is the check50 link also: https://cs50.me/checks/55b2fd284927af9654f72f65393d07a9d615b509

While the output from your program may be encoding the plaintext, the problem lies elsewhere. The program spec says to prompt for input. The code above merely waits for input, without a prompt. Perhaps a review of the program spec is in order? There is specific instruction about the prompt and what follows.

One of the hidden lessons in the early psets is that the programs must be written to conform to exactly what is required in the spec. This is especially important in team programming environments when different programmers work on different functions that must later function together.

  • A lesson in observation. The old spec required no prompt. I am resubmitting problem sets and forgot to read the new spec. Commented Oct 17, 2017 at 22:02
