Challenge problem, Question

it says, Let's add the year of the album to the 'albumMutable' variable. Where the key is a NSString 'year' and the value is also a NSString '1969'.

so I have,<p>[albumMutable setObject:@1969 forKey:@"year"];</p> which i believe is correct but I am getting the message "The year set is not the correct value.

Whats the problem that I am not seeing?

Thanks

the year needs to be a string, not an NSNumber. try using @"1969" instead of @1969

Thanks, that was the problem,which I ended up figuring out. Although in the video he didn't use the " " and it seemed to work.
