Hey Andre,

You're on the right track, but you have a few typing errors in the code.

  1. artDict needs to be camelCased (needs a capital D)

  2. You're missing the quotation marks to surround the values in the Key/Value pairs (they are strings, so need quotes).

  3. "The Ship" and "Oil Paint" need to have a space separating the words.

  4. There is an extra comma after the last Key/Value pair.

Once all those are fixed up, you're good to go. The corrected code is below for your reference.

Keep Coding! :)

NSDictionary *artDict= @{@"Artist": @"Dali", @"Title": @"The Ship", @"Medium": @"Oil Paint"};
