need help on code challenge Introducing the Project

Patrik Alam,

Unfortunately the example code isn't quite what the task is looking for, so let's correct this. In the example, a new NSMutableArray object called 'array' is being declared and initialized. This new 'array' object is not necessary because our InboxViewController class already has a property called 'items' that we declared in the previous task. This task wants us to use that property instead. So we can remove the left side of the '=' sign in the example code and replace it with 'self.items'. If we do that the code will change to the following:

self.items = [NSMutableArray arrayWithObjects:@"items"];

Ok, so now on the right side of the '=' sign the example code was headed in the right direction. But the task wants us to set two or more NSString objects to the 'items' property. The example code was one string object short. With the 'arrayWithObjects' class method we can initialize the NSMutableArray object with more than one object at a time. We just have to separate each object with commas (,) and end our list of objects with the keyword 'nil'. So lets add 'another item' to the list of objects. In the end our code will look like:

self.items = [NSMutableArray arrayWithObjects:@"items", @"another item", nil];

This new line of code should work. I hope this clears up any confusion you might have had.

A truly great answer. Keep up the good work David :)
