Courses Plus Student 3,274 Pointswhat exactly do i have to do here?
Hello,
i dont think i quite understand the given task.
Shouldn't i put the value from the previous activity in mFuelLevel by using getStringExtra?
First, how can i do that when mFuelLevel is an int and secondly.... is that the only bug in my code?
Help...
import android.os.Bundle;
public class FlightActivity extends Activity {
public int mFuelLevel = 0;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_flight);
Intent intent = getIntent();
mFuelLevel=intent.getStringExtra("FUEL_LEVEL");
// Add your code below!
}
}

The only other thing you need to add is a default value in case "FUEL_LEVEL" isn't found. This is supplied as the second argument to getIntExtra and for this challenge is expected to be -1.
