Animate an answer

I have can not get the last code challenge right on the animate answer I do not need the answer but any explanation would be great. Question

TextView statusLabel = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.statusLabel);

AlphaAnimation fadeOutAnimation = new AlphaAnimation (1,0); fadeOutAnimation.setDuration(2000); AlphadeOutAnimation.setFillAfter(true); statusLabel.setAnimation(fadeOutAnimation); statusLabel.setAnimation(fadeoutAnimation);

It looks like the o on the last line should be capitalized, so it reads fadeOutAnimation

I have done these changes but still I have got something wrong with the code. This is the out put from a compiler

"Bummer! Your last line of code should call 'setAnimation()' on statusLabel with an appropriate parameter."So I do not know where I am going wrong.

TextView statusLabel = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.statusLabel); AlphaAnimation fadeOutAnimation = new AlphaAnimation (1,0); fadeOutAnimation.setDuration(2000); fadeOutAnimation.setFillAfter(true); statusLabel.setAnimation(fadeOutAnimation);
