627 PointsProblem with code challenge in Build a Simple iPhone App (iOS 7)
Hi
I wanted to begin the course, but I constantly get an error when trying to complete the first code challenge. I've put in "NSString *myString = @"Crystal Ball";", but it tells me that "Bummer! Your 'myString' variable has the wrong value in it. Check the task instructions again."
I've reloaded the page a couple of times and it keeps giving me some sort of error, although not always the error above even though I paste the same text in the editor.
Best
Nicolai

I tried various strings yesterday (including Shawn's) without any luck. But when I tried it again just now it worked. I'm not exactly sure what happened, but I probably typed something wrong. Anyhow, now it works.
Thanks.

Treehouse Guest TeacherYour value should be "Fun with Objective-C" and not "Crystal Ball".
