C# C# Objects Encapsulation with Properties Properties

Challenge Task 1 of 1 Replace the accessor methods with a property named NumFliesEaten with a getter and setter for _nu

please help with "Bummer! Did you replace both accessor methods with a single property?"

I have no error messages when compiling, but need help, what I am I missing? Thanks!

Frog.cs
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    public class Frog
    {
        private int _numFliesEaten;

        public int GetNumFliesEaten()
    {
      return _numFliesEaten;
    }

    public void SetNumFliesEaten(int x)
    {
      _numFliesEaten = x;
    }
    }
}

It doesn't look like you've changed anything other than the name of the setter argument.

Remember, the object here is to replace both the getter and setter methods with a new property which handles the private field.

You might want to review the Properties video, and watch how the Location property is constructed for the Invader class.

What I am I missing Parker??

namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges { public class Frog { private int _numFliesEaten;

    public int NumFliesEaten
    {
        get
        {
            return _numFilesEaten;
        }
        set
        {
             _numFliesEaten = value;
        }
    }
}

:point_right: That's much better! Now you only have a typo.

You wrote "_numFilesEaten" instead of "_numFliesEaten".

Other than that, looking good! :+1:

Thank you!

namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges { public class Frog { private int _numFliesEaten;

public int NumFliesEaten
{
    get
    {
        return _numFliesEaten;
    }
    set
    {
         _numFliesEaten = value;
    }
}

} }
