you have one more unnecessary 'end'. There are 9 opening clauses including def, while and if and 10 closing end

You are confusing the interpreter with your count++. ++ does not exist in Ruby. You need to use count += 1. The interpreter is probably assuming that is an expression involving addition, and expecting another operand but instead finding end
