Polygon.cs(14,14): error CS1519: Unexpected symbol `public' in class, struct, or interface member declaration
I don't see the error. Is it the curly bracket? When removed, it's still not working.
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
class Polygon
{
public readonly int NumSides;
public Polygon(int numSides)
{
NumSides = numSides;
}
}
class Square : Polygon
{
public readonly int SideLength
public Square(int sideLength) : base(4)
{
SideLength = sideLength;
}
}
}

public readonly int SideLength;
Hint: if you use "preview" to see the compiler error (always a good idea!), but the compiler error doesn't make sense, be sure to check the line before where the error is being reported.
