The task is as follows and i would love some help, any super easy quick ways to make this code? Maybe right a super short version and ill ammend. I will literally do anything for some help, i tried writing code in java but the sub functions did not work well will with global variables.
A biology class are going on a field trip. They have been given the task of catalouging the number of common minibeasts found within one square metre of woodland. To do this they lay a quadrat over a area of ground, not the coordinates of each minibeast they find and take a close-up digital photo as evidence (last bit is irrelivent)
The class will create a program to store the name and grid position of 6 common minibeasts.
The software will
. Allow one of six minibeats to be selected from a menu
. Enter and store the name and grid coordinate of the selected minibeast
.display how often each minibeats was found
.display the minibeast found at a selected coordinate
so basically the user enters the number 1 = slug 2 = centipede 3 = ladybird 4 = snail 5 = woodlouse 6 = worm 7 = end/exit
also struggled to end the loop when 'loop until valid_input = 7'
i need help, i nearly cried the other night after spending so long on this. So i decided to turn to the forums, i have been a member for a long time and used resources but i lost email account to a hacker :/
thankyou soo much, it really is my future in this code, probs take a pro minutes to make aha
cheers
what i have so far
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim minibeast(10) As Integer
Dim coordinate As String
Dim index As Integer
Dim how_many As Integer
index = -1
Do
index += 1
minibeast(index) = InputBox("enter number of minibeast")
lst_display.Items.Add(minibeast(index))
coordinate = InputBox("enter the coordinate of minibeast")
lst_coordinate.Items.Add(coordinate)
how_many = InputBox("How many of this minibeast was found at " & coordinate)
lst_how_many.Items.Add(how_many)
Loop Until minibeast(index) = 7
txt_amount.Text = index
End Sub
End Class

I wasn't sure if this was for Windows Console or Windows form, so considering you're not quite sure how to do this, I assumed you were after a console app.
Things to note:
-Some of the wording may need changed if this is a school project...
-It doesn't use 2D arrays (although better suited for the x-y co-ordinates).
I thought that might look a little confusing to read, so I used 1D instead.
-I have left comments in so it looks believable (if you're handing this in).
