Create an instance of UIImage called 'image' given the name of the image is 'placeholder.png'.

So far I have this coded and I am currently stuck on this problem. The challenge is to Create an instance of UIImage called 'image' given the name of the image is 'placeholder.png'.

UITableViewCell *cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] init];

/* Write your code below this line */

cell.imageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"placeholder.png"];

I dont understand what is wrong with this code but if anyone could help that would be great.

The challenge asks for you to "Create an instance of UIImage called 'image' given the name of the image is 'placeholder.png'."

you are jumping ahead of yourself

remember to create an instance of a UIImage you use

UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"image_name"];

It hasnt asked you to set the imageView yet, just to instantiate the image itself

Thanks for the response I guess I got a little ahead of myself there.

i tried this and it told me i was wrong and i won't be able to move on.

never mind something happened with the comment above
