After following along with the readonly discussion video, my crystal ball app is no longer displaying the information from the NSArray after I click on the prediction button. I am not sure why this is. Does anybody have any ideas that might help? As far as I can tell the NSArray still contains all of the string items, but they will not display after the button is pressed.

import "FFViewController.h"
import "FFCrystalBall.h"
@interface FFViewController ()
@end
@implementation FFViewController
-
(void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad];
self.crystalBall = [[FFCrystalBall alloc] init]; }
(void)didReceiveMemoryWarning { [super didReceiveMemoryWarning]; }
(IBAction)buttonPressed { self.predictionLabel.text = [self.crystalBall randomPrediction]; } @end

Courses Plus Student 2,669 Pointshey what i found wrong was the spelling of predictions array. you wrote: (NSArray *) predictons where as it should be predictions. I hope now it should work.
