Error "Cannot implicitly convert type 'int' to 'string'"

I was doing this simple code snippet to generate the Month name by using the Day Number but I got the error Cannot implicitly convert type 'int' to 'string'. I'm not trying to change MonthName into int!

class Module04
{
    public static void Exercise01()
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Please Enter a day n开发者_开发百科umber between 1 and 365: ");
        string line = Console.ReadLine();
        int dayNum = int.Parse(line);

        int monthNum = 0;

        if (dayNum <= 31) // January
        {
            goto End;
        }
        else
        {
            dayNum -= 31;
            monthNum++;
        }

        if (dayNum <= 28) // February
        {
            goto End;
        }
        else
        {
            dayNum -= 28;
            monthNum++;
        }

        if (dayNum <= 31) // March
        {
            goto End;
        }
        else
        {
            dayNum -= 31;
            monthNum++;
        }

        if (dayNum <= 30) // April
        { goto End; }
        else
        {
            dayNum -= 30;
            monthNum++;
        }

        if (dayNum <= 31) // May
        { goto End; }
        else
        {
            dayNum -= 31;
            monthNum++;
        }

        if (dayNum <= 30) // June

        else
        {

            monthNum++;

It's the switch where you're using it as an int - You probably meant to pass monthNum to the switch statement.

(Also: Shouldn't you have monthNum == ... in all of the ifs in the first part?)

---

Change the switch to

switch (monthNum)

---

You are doing a switch on monthName, with int cases, thus c# try's to convert the string to int to match the cases.

monthName is a string so your switch cases should be a string also.

string monthName;

            switch (monthName)
            {
                case "0" :
                    monthName = "January"; break;
                case "1" :
                    monthName = "February"; break;
                case "2" :
                    monthName = "March"; break;
                case "3" :
                    monthName = "April"; break;
                case "4" :
                    monthName = "May"; break;
                case "5" :
                    monthName = "June"; break;
                case "6" :
                    monthName = "July"; break;
                case "7" :
                    monthName = "August"; break;
                case "8" :
                    monthName = "September"; break;
                case "9" :
                    monthName = "October"; break;
                case "10" :
                    monthName = "November"; break;
                case "11" :
                    monthName = "December"; break;
                default :
                    monthName = "Not yet Done"; break;
            }
        Console.WriteLine("{0} {1}", dayNum, monthName);
