From your other post:

So I'm doing my CS NEA and I dont get what's wrong with my code here:

Since it is this you can't have folk write the code for you but you also need to do more than dump code and not write what the issue is. You can't lead with "it doesn't work" or similar. No one by you knows what this is supposed to do as we don't have access to the design spec.
