eof error in tree harvester program

Hello, I have been working on simply one tree logger, but I get (eof) error all the time. I googled it and did check all things what I could imagine about it, but did not find the answer what I was looking for. Could anyone tell me, what is wrong with this?

for num=1,5 do
turtle.select(1)
turtle.place()
turtle.select(2)
sleep(5)
end
turtle.compare() do
turtle.dig()
turtle.forward()
end
while turtle.detectUp() do
turtle.digUp()
turtle.up()
end
while turtle.detectDown()==false do
turtle.down()
end
turtle.back()
turtle.select(3)
turtle.dropDown()
end

Split into new topic.

You have two too many ends.

Just one too many, actually.

You can easily tell how many 'end's you need if you properly format your code. Saves me lots of time :)/>

The use of Notepad ++ would help you alot in this. And always indent your code by using tab.

i think (s)he is missing 'for' on line 7

Plus (s)he missed to compare a block to a specific slot in the inventory. Or is that not necessary with turtle.compare()?

the turtle default inventory slot that is selected is the top left one (aka. number 1)

Hi there i have recently downloaded CC and have watched and read many tutorials and thought i would give a shot at making my own automated tree farm. This was all going good until i have reached the point w tree here i just dont know whats wrong.
Basicly there is no errors, it plants the saplings and then sleeps and checks to see if they have grown. The problem is that when the turtle chops down the tree it doesnt come back down. Its like it just ignores that part of the code for some reason any help would be appreciated.
I have highlighted the part in red for you.


– How many trees to plant
print("Please put dirt in slot 1, saplings in slot 2 and logs in slot 3.\n")
print("How many trees do you want planted?")
local info = io.read()
local dirt, sapling, log = 1, 2, 3

– Planting first set of trees
for i = 1,info do
turtle.forward()
turtle.forward()
turtle.forward()
turtle.turnRight()
turtle.forward()
turtle.digDown()
turtle.select(dirt)
turtle.placeDown()
turtle.select(sapling)
turtle.back()
turtle.place()
turtle.turnLeft()
end

– Moving to position
turtle.forward()
turtle.forward()
turtle.forward()
turtle.turnRight()
turtle.forward()
turtle.forward()
turtle.turnRight()

– Check to see if trees are grown
while true do
os.sleep(10)
for i = 1, info do
turtle.select(log)
turtle.forward()
turtle.forward()
turtle.forward()
turtle.turnRight()
– If tree is grown
if turtle.compare() then
turtle.dig()
turtle.forward()
while turtle.detectUp() do
print("Digging up")
turtle.digUp()
turtle.up()
end
while not turtle.detectDown do
print("Going down")
turtle.down()
end
turtle.back()
turtle.select(sapling)
turtle.place()
end
turtle.turnLeft()
end
– Round the corner
turtle.forward()
turtle.forward()
turtle.forward()
turtle.turnRight()
turtle.forward()
turtle.forward()
turtle.turnRight()
end

Here I Think This Should Work But I Didn't Test It Because I Was To Lazy

for num=1,5 do
  turtle.select(1)
  turtle.place()
  turtle.select(2)
  sleep(5)
end
while turtle.compare() do
  turtle.dig()
  turtle.forward()
end
while turtle.detectUp() do
  turtle.digUp()
  turtle.up()
end
while turtle.detectDown()==false do
  turtle.down()
end
turtle.back()
turtle.select(3)
turtle.dropDown()
