Question

For a programming assignment, I have to make a simple dice game in Visual C#. A part of this game is displaying a list of the values, and seeing whether the total of the values is over a certain number.
I currently have a textbox that displays the individual values separated by a newline, and am currently using iPlayer1Total += int.Parse(player1TxtBox.Text);, but this only seems to do the first line of the textbox.

It seems that you are using multiline textbox. First split your string on “\n\r” and then:

string[] strArray =player1TxtBox.Text.Split("\n\r".ToCharArray());

then

        int iPlayer1Total = 0;
        foreach (string str in strArray)
        {
            int temp =0;
            int.TryParse(str, out temp);
            iPlayer1Total  += temp;
         }

Edit: a better option to split would be:

var strArray  = player1TxtBox.Text.Split("\r\n".ToCharArray(),StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);
