Help Having trouble in Method Overloading quiz!

Add a second parameter to the constructor named reactionTime after the existing parameter and use it to initialize the value of the ReactionTime field.

Frog.cs 
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    class Frog
    {
        public readonly int TongueLength;

        public readonly int ReactionTime;

       public reactionTime(){

       }

        public Frog(int tongueLength)
        {
            TongueLength = tongueLength;
        }

        public bool EatFly(int distanceToFly)
        {
            return TongueLength >= distanceToFly;
        }
    }
}

Hi there!

The current constructor has only one parameter:

public Frog(int tongueLength)
{
    TongueLength = tongueLength;

Adding the second one will make it look like this:

public Frog(int tongueLength, int reactionTime)
{
    TongueLength = tongueLength;
}

Afterwards, initializing the value of the ReactionTime field is easy:

public Frog(int tongueLength, int reactionTime)
{
    TongueLength = tongueLength;
    ReactionTime = reactionTime;
}

Hope it helped!
