1,330 PointsMake sure you set mType in the constructor
The challenge asks to create a constructor with no parameters and to assign the value "SHUTTLE" to the variable mType. That's what I did and I keep getting the "Make sure you set mType in the constructor" error. Any idea on what am I doing wrong?
public class Spaceship {
public String mType;
public String getType() {
return mType;
}
public void setType(String type) {
mType = type;
}
public void setType() {
mType = "SHUTTLE";
}
}

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