Code Challenge Question:
Access the first fruit in your array.
Here is my code. Please tell me if you see anything wrong when trying to locate the first fruit in my array. The system has already approved my first line of code. The second part keeps coming back wrong for some reason.
NSArray *myArray = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects: @"Apple", @"Orange", @"Banana", @"Plum", nil];
self.myLabel.text = [myArray objectAtIndex:0];
Thanks!

...in the second line you are assigning the value returned from the myArray to a label but in this case, it is non-existent. It exists in the context of the project but the Code Challenge does not test against variables or properties declared within the project. Hence, your answer [myArray objectAtIndex:0]; is perfect, just don't assign it to a label. ā <cite>Amit Bijlani</cite>
