What do I do from this part? Program should display all possible commands so user knows how to use it, without first having to refer to the user guide. Not intuitive.

The 'Original' Bug

[The team marked this bug as a duplicate of the following bug]

Does not tell user what to do after starting application

It just says hello with no further instructions. Should have some form of guidance for the user.

Their Response to the 'Original' Bug

[This is the team's response to the above 'original' bug]

Indeed, CashLeh? does not provide the user with any sort of explicit guidance or further instruction when running the application for the first time. However, the first output given in the above screenshot specifies a link to the user guide which contains a very detailed walkthrough of the application's commands and capabilities. For simplicity and coherence we will add some additional information in our future versions.

Items for the Tester to Verify

:question: Issue duplicate status

Team chose to mark this issue as a duplicate of another issue (as explained in the Team's response above)

Reason for disagreement: Lack of a help function is different to providing the user instructions on what to do when starting the program. Hence, this is not a duplicate.

## :question: Issue severity Team chose [`severity.VeryLow`] Originally [`severity.Low`] - [x] I disagree **Reason for disagreement:** Would like to change the severity for the issue to 'MEDIUM'. (Medium: A flaw that causes occasional inconvenience to some users but they can continue to use the product.) The lack of a help function fits the description of a medium severity bug. Having to refer to the UG every time user wants to test a new function causes poses inconvenience for the user. This is a function that was present in addressbooklevel2, so it is a function that should be present in a team's final PE.
