7,453 PointsThe naming convention is 'setVariableName' (without the 'm' prefix).
What's the problem please?
public class Spaceship{ public String mType;
public String getType(){ return mType; } public void SetType(String type){ mType = type; } }

6,484 PointsYou have the S in SetType capitalized.
Try setType?

What's the problem please?
public class Movie
{
private String mTitle;
private int mYearReleased;
public String gettitle() { return mTitle; }
public void settitle(String title) {
mTitle = title;
}
public int getyearreleased() { return mYearReleased; }
public void settemperature(int yearreleased) {
mYearReleased = yearreleased;
}
}

56,413 PointsIt needs to be camel-cased, not all lowercase. The method names are just the field name with the 'm' replaced with 'get' or 'set' with the casing left as is. (ex. for mYearReleased, get methods are named getYearReleased and setYearReleased
