I don't understand what I should make in this exercise!

"Now we need to update the previous row we inserted because we made a mistake. Rover is a grumpy cat, not a mixed-breed dog! Start by completing the where clause (in the clause variable) by replacing the comment with the appropriate name."

I am not sure what the "name" is.

CodeChallenge.java ContentValues values = new ContentValues(); values.put("name", "Rover"); values.put("type", "cat"); values.put("breed", "grumpy");

String clause = String.format("%s=%s", "name", "");

/* Add your code here!

  • Assume you already have a variable named 'database'. */
CodeChallenge.java 
ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put("name", "Rover");
values.put("type", "cat");
values.put("breed", "grumpy");

String clause = String.format("%s=%s", "name", /* add param here */);

/* Add your code here! 
 * Assume you already have a variable named 'database'.
 */

The name is Rover. The following line of code shows how to use the name in the clause.

String clause = String.format("%s=%s", "name", "Rover");
