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

would like to know how to construct the boolean method to return the EatFly Method.

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

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

        bool EatFly(int distanceFly)
        {
           bool EatFly = distanceFly == tongueLength;
           return = Eatfly;
        }
    }
}

You have the right idea, but a few code issues:

  • the function needs a "public" access modifier
  • the field name is "TongueLength" (capital "T") instead of "tongueLength"
  • the test should be if the tongue is greater or equal instead of just equal
  • the variable name should be consistent, including the case of each letter ("F" vs "f")
  • there should be no "=" in a "return" statement
  • you could optionally return the value directly and skip creating a variable
