Courses Plus Student 257 PointsI do not know why I am getting this wrong. It keeps telling me to list the 3 items mentioned and I did.
It keeps telling me to list the 3 items that were mentioned and I did as well as to include the word self of which I did as well but it keeps saying there is still something wrong.
#import "UIViewController.h"
@interface ViewController : UIViewController
@property (strong, nonatomic) IBOutlet UILabel NSArray *shoppingList;
@end
#import "ViewController.h"
@implementation ViewController
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
(IBAction)shoppingList {
NSArray *shoppingList = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:@"toothpaste", @"bread", @"eggs", nil];
self.shoppingList.text = [shoppingList objectAtIndex:strong, nonatomic];
}
@end

I create the array (step 1):
@property (nonatomic, strong) NSArray *shoppingList;
Then I add items to the array (step 2):
self.shoppingList = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:@"toothpaste", @"bread", @"eggs", nil];
Then I add eggs to the shopping cart (step 3):
self.shoppingCart = [_shoppingList objectAtIndex:2];

Treehouse Moderator 37,862 PointsI'm having trouble understanding the question. Can you try re-wording it?

2,428 PointsI guess underscores don't get submitted in questions...But, my question is why is it that there has to be an underscore before shoppingList.

Treehouse Moderator 37,862 PointsI am not sure why. All I know is 'NSArray *shoppingList' and 'self.shoppingList' didn't work for me.

@implementation ViewController
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
// Add your code below! index 0 index 1 index 2
self.shoppingList = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects: @"toothpaste", @"bread", @"eggs", nil];
self.shoppingCart = [self.shoppingList objectAtIndex: 2]; // See Below!!
}
@end
You are just saying: For the string shoppingCart, assign the value that is the object at index 2 of the array shoppingList : which is the eggs.
