Getting Data from an Intent 2/2

Hi, I am stuck on this, I am not sure I understand the question that well, help would be appreciated to understand this.

Thanks.

FlightActivity.java 
import android.os.Bundle;

public class FlightActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    public int fuelLevel = 0;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_flight);

        // Add your code below!
        Intent intent = getIntent();
            intent.getStringExtra("FUEL_LEVEL", -1);
    }
}

I think I have it now justed needed to put fuelLevel = intent.getIntExtra("FUEL_LEVEL", -1);

It was the getIntExtra that I didn't realize for ages.
