Code Challenge: Introducing the Project

I'm stuck on the second part of this code challenge.

I've entered:

self.items = [NSMutableArray arrayWithObjects:@"String1",@"String2",nil];

tried your code and it worked fine. make sure you put it in view did load inside the .m file

#import "InboxViewController.h"

@implementation InboxViewController

- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];
    // Add custom code below!
    self.items = [NSMutableArray arrayWithObjects:@"String1",@"String2",nil];
}

@end

also make sure you declared the property correctly in the header fileand set its attributes as nonatomic and strong

#import "UITableViewController.h"

@interface InboxViewController : UITableViewController
@property (nonatomic, strong) NSMutableArray *items;



@end
