C# C# Objects Loops and Final Touches For Loops

Return the average length of the tongues of the frogs in the array. Use a for loop as part of your solution.

Please let me know where i'm going wrong.

FrogStats.cs
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    class FrogStats
    {

        public static double GetAverageTongueLength(Frog[] frogs)
        {
            var toungesTotal = 0;
            var tounges = 0;
            for( int i = 0; i < frogs.Length; i++)
            {
                tounges = frogs[i];
                toungesTotal = tounges + toungesTotal;

            }
            return toungesTotal/frogs.Length;

        }
    }
}
Frog.cs
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    public class Frog
    {
        public int TongueLength { get; }

        public Frog(int tongueLength)
        {
            TongueLength = tongueLength;
        }
    }
}

If you check the preview you will see: Cannot implicitly convert type 'Treehouse.CodeChallenges.Frog' to 'int'

To access the TongueLength of frog use dot notation:

tounges = frogs[i].TongueLength;
