No quick fix for answer.Label.setText(answer)

On the video it shows the quick fix coming up to make this string final, but I don't have that option. It's producing an error so I can't continue, any ideas?

'''Android //Declare our View variables TextView answerLabel = (TextView) findViewById(id.textView1); Button getAnswerButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);

    getAnswerButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {


        public void onClick(View v) {
            // The button was clicked, so update the answer label with an answer
        String answer = "Yes";
        answer.Label.setText(answer);

'''

This line

answer.Label.setText(answer);

should be

answerLabel.setText(answer);

If don't have show any options you can manual add final keyword to your variable such as

final TextView answerLabel = (TextView) findViewById(id.textView1);
