Challenge 2 of 3

I get this error even though i have done everything correctly.

ERROR:

Bummer! Compilation Error! Make sure you are calling 'getJSONArray()' from the 'jsonData' variable and storing the result in a JSONArray variable!

CODE:

String name = jsonData.getString("name") ;

String publisher = jsonData.getString("publisher") ;

String language = jsonData.getString("language") ;

JSONArray jsonBooks = jsonData.getJSONArray("books");


for (int index = 0 ; index < jsonBooks.length()   ; index++ )  {

  JSONObject jsonBook = jsonBooks.getJSONObject(index);

  String title = jsonBook.getString("title") ;

  String pages = jsonBook.getString("pages") ;

  Log.i("CodeChallenge" ; title + ", " + pages );


}

Michael,

I believe the problem in your code is on the last line because you are using the wrong delimeter to mark the parameter:

Log.i("CodeChallenge" ; title + ", " + pages );

it should be instead:

Log.i("CodeChallenge", title + ", " + pages );
