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

compiler drops error message can't really find,please help with some tips.thank you in advance.

FrogStats.cs 
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    class FrogStats
    {
        public static double GetAverageTongueLength(Frog[] frogs)
        {
            int sum = 0;
            int average = 0;

            for(int i = 0; i < frogs.Length; i++)
            {
               Frog frog = frogs[i];

               sum += frog;
            }

            average = sum / frogs.Length;
        }
    }
}
Frog.cs 
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    public class Frog
    {
        public int TongueLength { get; }

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

:point_right: It looks like you have two issues:

  • you can't add to your sum using a frog, but you could sum using frog.TongueLength.
  • after you compute the average, you need to return it.
