Declare an int variable named numberOfSports and set it to the number of elements in the array using the array's length

I am stuck on this one.

Array.java
String[] sports = { "Basketball", "Baseball", "Tennis" };
String bestSport = "Basketball";
int numberOfSports = Sport.length;

int numberOfSports = Sport.length;

should be

int numberOfSports = sports.length;

You must invoke the length method on the object itself, not the type of the object.

int numberOfSports = (sports.length);

Dear Nhat,

it not working.
