Actually, he is.  Look closer.

As /F pointed out, his problem is in the linking.  By making a small
modification to his code, I was able to get it to print 

   1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 None

As (I assume) was expected.  I'd post the code, but the margin is too
small to contain it...  Besides, I'd like the OP to figure it out
himself.
