Im not sure what is not working about my code

I am not sure why I am getting an error

FrogStats.cs
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    class FrogStats
    {
        public static double GetAverageTongueLength(Frog[] frogs)
        {
            int totalLengthOfTongues = 0;

            for(int i = 0; i < frogs.Length; i++)
            {
               //Frog frog = new Frog(0);
               totalLengthOfTongues +=  frogs.TongueLength;
            }

            return totalLengthOfTongues / frogs.Length;
        }
    }
}
Frog.cs
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    public class Frog
    {
        public int TongueLength { get; }

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

Remember that "frogs" is an array and does not have a "TongueLength" property itself. But you can apply an index to it to select a specific "frog" which would have that property.

Thank you for that fix! i added the indexer and it worked! frogs[i].TongueLength
