This new is global to your file. Within your main() function you can
read the value of new.
But inside main() you are creating another variable also called new
when you do this:
new += .....
Your code is trying to add something to a variable that doesn't yet
have a value. 'new' is
a name that is not bound to any value.
You can either move the stuff at the top of your program into main, or
you could pass the outer new
into main as a parameter: main(new):
