Got blocked on a simple problem

Honestly I don't think I have done enough training on basics yet as I get stuck with syntac errors and not declaring simple things leading to complete code not working. I do realize that this is a process of continous development and learning new things from mistakes is what we are aiming for. There is nothing like an end to this study and I am determined to continue without a doubt.For these simple problems, there is no special problem solving technics as going through code over and over again will make you spot the error.

Solved a problem in an elegant way.

In the kata challenges, I wasn't able to complete all but the ones I have completed are solved in a elegant way as most of them were solved through pseudocode and google.
