compiler error !!

Finally, notice that our Spaceship class has a new field to store the number of passengers in the ship. Use the method to get the number of passengers for mSpaceship, and then set the text for mPassengersField to this value. Note: You will need to convert the int value to a String!

LandingActivity.java
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;

public class LandingActivity extends Activity {

    public Button mThrustButton;
    public TextView mTypeLabel;
    public EditText mPassengersField;
    mPassengersField.setText();

    public Spaceship mSpaceship;
    mSpaceship.getNumPassengers();

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_landing);

        mThrustButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.thrustButton);
        mTypeLabel = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.typeTextView);
        mPassengersField = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.passengersEditText);

        // Add your code here!
      mSpaceship = new Spaceship("FIREFLY");
      mTypeLabel.setText(mSpaceship.getType());
      mPassengersField.setText(mSpaceship.getNumPassengers() + "");
    }
}
Spaceship.java
public class Spaceship {
    private String mType;
    private int mNumPassengers = 0;

    public String getType() {
      return mType;
    }

    public void setType(String type) {
      mType = type;
    }

    public int getNumPassengers() {
      return mNumPassengers;
    }

    public void setNumPassengers(int numPassengers) {
      mNumPassengers = numPassengers;
    }

    public Spaceship() {
      mType = "SHUTTLE";
    }

    public Spaceship(String type) {
      mType = type;
    }
}

please note the codes i have added to this challenge, mPassengersField.setText(); mSpaceship.getNumPassengers(); mPassengersField.setText(mSpaceship.getNumPassengers() + "");

I tried whatever you wrote and i did not get any compilation error. Also remove unnecessary calls to mPassengersField.setText(); and mSpaceship.getNumPassengers(); while declaring variables .

Thank you Sai
