Question about the task

Under discussion

Hi ! can u tell me what is wrong with this code. Because at this point i have no idea of what wrong .. Thanks in advance

In the main method, place plus and minus signs correctly so that the variable result is equal to 20.
Signs must be placed only in the line where the variable result is declared.
Do not change the order of the variables in this line.
Each variable must be preceded by either a plus or minus sign.

Requirements:

Values of variables: Do not change a, b, c, or d.
Each of the variables (a, b, c, and d) in the line where the variable result is declared must be preceded by either a plus or minus sign.
The program should display the number 20 on the screen.
The plus and minus signs must be placed correctly.

package com.codegym.task.task01.task0137; /* Only 20 will do */ public class Solution { public static void main(String[] args) { int a = 5; int b = 5; int c = 5; int d = 5; int result = a+b+c+d; System.out.printIn(result); } } }

dont change the values of the variables instead change signs in the result variable so that the plus and minus total equals to 20 for example -30+10=20

You have changed the variables (a,b,c,d) - you should not break this rule - your task is to change signs in the result line to produce 20 from the defined variables above e.g. int a = 15 ; int b=10 ; int c = 30; result = + a + b + c ; your task is to make the result produce 25 , so the solution is result = - a + b + c
