8,147 PointsBummer: Does Program.ParseWeatherForecast return WeatherForecast?
No compilation errors remain for my code in Task 1 of this challenge, but I just don't see why the error generated says my ParseWeatherForecast method is not returning a WeatherForecast object. Thanks for your help!
using System;
using System.IO;
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
public class Program
{
public static object ParseWeatherForecast(string[] values)
{
var weatherForecast = new WeatherForecast();
weatherForecast.WeatherStationId = values[0];
return weatherForecast;
}
public static void Main(string[] arg)
{
}
}
}
using System;

8,147 PointsThanks for the suggestion Jaspal, unfortunately changing type to "Object" didn't work. But, you got me to think about trying something else, like the object name itself. When I replaced the type with the actual object class "WeatherForecast," it worked.
