Adapting Data for Display in a List: 2nd Code Challenge 1 of 3

I'm also having a bit of trouble on this challenge. Any suggestions?

Some YouTube data in the file 'data.json' has been loaded into a JSONObject named 'jsonData'. Using 'data.json' as your guide, write a 'for' loop that loops through 'jsonVideos'. In each step of the loop, store the value of the 'title' property in the 'titles' array.

for (i = 0; i < jsonVideos.length(); i ++) { JSONObject video = jsonVideos.getObject(i); String[] title = video.getString("title"); }

It doesn't look like you're storing anything in an array named 'titles'. The last line in your for loop is creating a new array named 'title' instead of storing a value in an existing array named 'titles'. Instead, try something like this:

titles[i] = video.getString("title");

I think it should go something like this

JSONObject post = jsonVideos.getJSONObject(i); String title = post.getString("title"); titles[i] = title;

you can add the forloop yourself
