15,021 PointsThis question asks to change the public into private and apply some convention, that it! Your code should look like this one....
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges { class Frog {
private int _numFliesEaten;
}
}
You will use Getter and Setter method for next question(Q#2).

230,688 PointsThe property type should remain int.
It looks like you changed the access to private and renamed the property correctly, but the type should still be "int" (not "NumFilesEaten").
It also looks like you started to add an auto-property after _numFliesEaten, but that's not part of this challenge (plus you have some syntax issues).
