Declare an NSArray variable named "drinks" and initialize it with three strings: "juice", "water", and "coffee".
tried
NSArray *drinks[[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:@"juice", @"water", @"coffee", nil];
Correct code with explanation would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Should be:
NSArray *drinks = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:@"juice", @"water", @"coffee", nil];
Explanation: You were close, probably just one cup of coffee short of having it right the first time. Just needed the equals sign in there after declaring *drinks. Don't worry I make typing errors like that all the time. Less frequently the more I code but it still happens to the best of us.

NSArray *drinks = [[NSArray alloc] initWithStrings:@"juice", @"water", @"coffee", nil];

NSArray *drinks[[NSArray alloc] initWithStrings[@"juice", @"water", @"coffee", nil];
because I thought since it asked for string strings not objects that might word.
