Question on initializing an array

Below the String variables, declare an array of Strings named 'titles'. Initialize it with the three String variables you just created.

This is what I have :

String title1 = "Android is awesome";
String title2 = "Mike is cool";
String title3 = "Treehouse loves me";
String[] titles = {"title1","title2","title3"};

I'm not getting this correct. It's saying "make sure you use the exact titles from step 1."

Will somebody show me what I did wrong?

Hi Joshua,

You have initialized the array with the strings "title1","title2","title3"

You want to initialize it with the title variables so you need to drop all the quotes so that it's referring to the variable names, not strings of the variable names.
