Instructing image to start animating?

I don't know what the action is instigates the animation? Where should i place self.imageView.startAnimating;

The following is what I have....

'''#import "THViewController.h"

@implementation THViewController

  • (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad];

    // backgroundImage is a local variable UIImage *backgroundImage = [UIImage imageNamed:@"background"]; // imageView is a property self.imageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:backgroundImage];

    // Add your code below! // Remember 'imageView' is a property // so refer to it as 'self.imageView' self.imageView.animationImages = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects: [UIImage imageNamed:@"01.png"], [UIImage imageNamed:@"02.png"], [UIImage imageNamed:@"03.png"], nil]; self.imageView.animationDuration = 5.0f; self.imageView.startAnimating; };

'''

@end

I figured it our. The code is...

[self.imageView startAnimating] NOT [self.imageView.startAnimating]
