Method says not created.

Created a method but its saying that there is no method. How i fix this?

Frog.cs 
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    class Frog
    {
        public readonly int TongueLength;

        public Frog(int tongueLength)
        {
            TongueLength = tongueLength;
        }
        bool EatFly(int distanceToFly)
        {
            bool flyEaten = tongueLength  <= distanceToFly;
            return flyEaten; 
        }

    }
}

Here are the issues with your method.

  • forgot public keyword.
  • tongueLength is a typo
  • <= is the wrong comparison operator to use here, either switch the place the 2 variables being compared or use >= instead.

And actually you really don't need the extra local variable bool flyEaten there, you can write the method body simply in one line.

        public bool EatFly(int distanceToFly)
        {
            return TongueLength >= distanceToFly;
        }

hope it helps.

I re-did the code to match yours but then its saying that "int distanceToFly" is not valid in current context.
