C# C# Objects Object-Oriented Programming Instantiation

How do I assign a new object (object name: frog) to a variable (variable name: mike)?

Object has already been created using the following syntax

Frog frog = new Frog ();

Program.cs
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main()
        {            
           Frog frog = new Frog ();



                var mike = frog;


            //var frog = "mike";
        }
    }
}
Frog.cs
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    class Frog
    {
    }
}

You've got the right idea, but your instantiation of the variable is not quite correct. Can you think of other examples you've seen where an object has been instantiated? Would it be more like var mike = ?
