Can somebody help me with this?
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
class FrogStats
{
public static double GetAverageTongueLength(Frog[] frogs)
{
double totalLength = 0;
double avgLength = 0;
for (int i=0; i <= frogs.Length; i++)
{
totalLength += frogs[i];
}
return totalLength / frogs.Length;
}
}
}
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
public class Frog
{
public int TongueLength { get; }
public Frog(int tongueLength)
{
TongueLength = tongueLength;
}
}
}

10,636 PointsIt seems you forgot to access the Frogs TongueLength property, when adding them to totalLength. You can access it with dot notation
totalLength += frogs[i].TongueLength;
Also having the loop end when i <= frogs.Length will result in an OutOfBoundsException, due to C# being zero based. If the Length was 5 the last element will be at index 4. Trying to get index 5 will throw the error. Ending the loop when I < frogs.Length will solve it
for( int i = 0; i < frog.Length; i++)
