231,198 PointsI see a couple of issues:
- You forgot to declare the (bool) return type of EatFly
- The EatFly function can't reference tongueLength (the property is TongueLength)
- (optional) The "food" variable isn't needed, you can return the expression directly
- (optional) The "notfood" line can be eliminated entirely
public bool EatFly(int distanceToFly)
{
return distanceToFly < TongueLength;
}
