     }
 }

so in the list its supposed to be 2 "students" but only one can be seen in the list??

currentHouse.SortingHat(newWizard, currentHouse); seems to be where you're adding the new wizard to a house yet that code was not included in your paste so how are we supposed to be able to help?

oh im sorry completely forgot!

         chkDeatheater.IsChecked = true;
     }
     if (student.DumbledoorsArmy == true)
     { 
         chkArmy.IsChecked = true;   
     }


     House currentHouse = hogwarts.Houses[currentHouseIndex];

     currentHouse.SortingHat(newWizard, currentHouse);
     MessageBox.Show($"{newWizard.Name} is now member {currentHouse.Members.Count} in {currentHouse}\n" +

     }


     House currentHouse = hogwarts.Houses[currentHouseIndex];

     currentHouse.SortingHat(newWizard, currentHouse);

thats the same code you just pasted :p also, you have some very confusing code here

Wizard newWizard = new ();
Wizard student = CreateNewWizard(newWizard);

Wizard newWizard = new ();
Wizard student = CreateNewWizard(newWizard);

seems convoluted, why not just make it

Wizard newWizard = CreateNewWizard();

Wizard newWizard = CreateNewWizard();

sorry here is he hat!

        public void SortingHat(Wizard wizard, House currentHouse)
        {
                currentHouse.Members.Add(wizard);
                


        }

        public void SortingHat(Wizard wizard, House currentHouse)
        {
                currentHouse.Members.Add(wizard);
                


        }

uh.. wait thats a method ON A HOUSE that takes a house as a parameter now that is both silly and confusing currentHouse.SortingHat(newWizard, currentHouse); note how currentHouse is specified twice here and the name is also confusing, that method only does one thing: register a wizard as a member of a house

olleeee•10mo ago

i know but i have to use the name thats specified in the assigment.

Pobiega•10mo ago

okay leave the name, but fix the rest of the issues I semi-rewrote this program as a console app, looks a bit like this

var houseIndex = 0;

for (var i = 0; i < 15; i++)
{
    var wizard = CreateNewWizard();

    Console.WriteLine($"New wizard: {wizard.Name}");
    if (wizard.DeathEater)
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"{wizard.Name} is a death eater.");
    }

    if (wizard.DumbledoorsArmy)
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"{wizard.Name} is part of Dumbledoors Army.");
    }

    var house = _hogwarts.Houses[houseIndex];
    houseIndex = (houseIndex + 1) % _hogwarts.Houses.Length;

    house.SortingHat(wizard);
    Console.WriteLine($"{wizard.Name} is now member {house.Members.Count} of {house.Name}!");
}

var houseIndex = 0;

for (var i = 0; i < 15; i++)
{
    var wizard = CreateNewWizard();

    Console.WriteLine($"New wizard: {wizard.Name}");
    if (wizard.DeathEater)
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"{wizard.Name} is a death eater.");
    }

    if (wizard.DumbledoorsArmy)
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"{wizard.Name} is part of Dumbledoors Army.");
    }

    var house = _hogwarts.Houses[houseIndex];
    houseIndex = (houseIndex + 1) % _hogwarts.Houses.Length;

    house.SortingHat(wizard);
    Console.WriteLine($"{wizard.Name} is now member {house.Members.Count} of {house.Name}!");
}

oh we not allowed to co console thoug so i have that they get added and says that they member two and so, but they just dont pop up in my list box.

Pobiega•10mo ago

you have 4 list boxes as far as I can tell

olleeee•10mo ago

yes

olleeee•10mo ago

so i can add the first time and everything works fine, but then when i try to add the second member to the list it doesnt work..

olleeee•10mo ago

its just adding more elements to the listbox it looks like it overrites its self

Pobiega•10mo ago

Ah, I see why you "update" the list by assigning its itemsource but if the itemsource is the same as it previously was, there is no reason to re-render even when the itemsource is assigned again and thats exactly whats happening here you'll need to call .Refresh() on your updated listview

olleeee•10mo ago

oh i have never seen refresh before but will give it a go! where and how im a supposed t refresh? i have got it now! just put the itemssource to null first thank you for all the input!
