Have an error that does not allow me too continue

It's an error called : Cannot resolve Symbol. Or It will be Cannot Resolve Method. Don't know where you can post a picture, so I cant show a screenshot. private FunBook m*Funbook = new *FunBook();

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


    // Declare our view variables % assign them the views from the layout files ^_^
    final TextView factLabel = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.FunFactText);
    Button showFactButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.MySwaggyButton);
    View.OnClickListener listener;
    listener = new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
        String fact = mFunbook.*getFact*();
        }
        //Updates Fact :)

        factLabel.setText("")

       };
    }

MySwaggyButton.*SetOnClickListener*()

Above is what my code is. Code I've quoted with The astrik is the code that has the " Cannot resolve Symbol/Cannot Resolve Method.

In which Code Challenge (and which task) do you get this problem? I have tried to check out the Using an Array Code Challenge, but I cannot recognize your presented code with that code.

I can see that you forgot the semicolon ";" in the following lines, telling the compiler that you would like to end the statements. I do not know what the task is about, though.

        factLabel.setText("")

and this line too:

MySwaggyButton.*SetOnClickListener*()

Oh, I didn't mean this question. I'm new to this site, and haven't figured out how to post relative questions. This is a common problem has nothing to do with the quiz. Sorry if it was misleading. xD The screenshot is my android project, and I have an error within it lol " Cannot resolve method/ Cannot Resolve Symbol.
