Hello people, my code won't run

There's an error

Polygon.cs 
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    class Polygon
    {
        public readonly int NumSides;

        public Polygon(int numSides)
        {
            NumSides = numSides;

        }

    }
    class Square : Polygon
    {
      public readonly int SideLength;

      public Square(int sideLength) : base(int numSides = 4)
      {
        SideLength = sideLength;
      }
    }

}

Instead of public Square(int sideLength) : base(int numSides = 4), you could try public Square(int sideLength) : base(4).
