I don't know if it's just me not understanding the question, or if I am just reading it wrong. Originally I thought I was suppose to set the value of the third item in the array, like a key-value pair. Then I read it again and it seems like I am suppose to set lap3 as type double and add the third item in that way. I keep getting an error that asks me if I indexed into the third item of the 'finalLapTimes' array and I did. So I am at a lost for words on what I am doing wrong.
double[] lapTimes = new double[4];
lapTimes[0] = 2.2;
double[] finalLapTimes = new double[4] {2.2, 2.3, 2.5, 2.8};
double lap3 = 2.5;
finalLapTimes[2] = lap3;

double[] lapTimes = new double[4]; lapTimes[0] = 2.2;
double[] finalLapTimes = new double[4] {2.2, 2.3, 2.5, 2.8}; double lap3 = finalLapTimes[2];

Could you tell me how "double lap3 = finalLapTimes[2];" was relevant since the question/assignment mentioned nothing about that?

3,924 PointsAs it turns out that's relevant to question 4/4 but I couldn't get past 3/4 without it. How did you know?

3,765 PointsYes this does actually work. Thank you! It looks like I was really close to the answer.
