the format of the method above is a bit unsettling. Is it a declaration and a method in one line? I'm just not quite sure how to appropriately wrap my brain around this.

Treehouse TeacherHi Sandy!
That is what is known as a for-each loop. Basically it's saying for each word in words perform this block of code. So yes it is essentially making a new locally scoped variable named word.
That help?
