i'm not sure what i'm supposed to do. lol all of the sudden i'm completely lost on this challenge.. any better advise?

Hello,

What it is asking is for you to create a String variable named bestSport and assign it the value of the first(remember, arrays start at an index of 0) element of the array.

In example: String elementOfArray = stringArray[index];

An array is a data structure where you can retrieve items by their index. Arrays are zero-indexed meaning the first item is at index 0, the second item is at index 1 and so on.

To get an item from an array based on that index you can use array[position].

So for your example, you have an array of Strings called sports. Create a new String called "bestSport"

String bestSport;

Then assign it to the first element in the sports array

String bestSport = sports[0];

(I broke it down into two steps to see how to think about it, but in the end you should be adding one line (the second one) as the final answer)

got it right after you explained that James...thanks.....I may need some sleep. cant believe I overlooked that. lol
