Courses Plus Student 1,779 PointsHello, How do I fix this syntax error?
It's saying that I'm writing thee initwithObjectAndKey wrong, but there could be another mistake.
NSMutableDictionary *carDict; carDict=[NSMutableDictionary];[CarDictiniwithObjecktAndKey:@"Honda",@"Make",@"Accord"@"Model",nil];

Treehouse TeacherHi there! First, it wants the declaration, allocation, and initialization all in one line of code. This is specified by the instructions of the challenge. However, you have used several lines of code. You've forgotten a comma in your key/value pairs, your square brackets are misplaced, and you've misspelled "init" as "ini". Here's how I did it:
NSMutableDictionary *carDict = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc]initWithObjectsAndKeys: @"Honda", @"Make", @"Accord", @"Model", nil];
This creates a NSMutableDictionary and assigns it to the variable name carDict. We begin by allocating memory to the dictionary and then use initWithObjectsAndKeys to set our beginning key/value list per the challenge instructions and terminate it with nil.
Hope this helps!
