What is wrong with my answer? self.quoteLabel.text = @"A stitch in time saves nine";

I have answered the question and even tested in Xcode and it compiles and works great. Somehow the quiz does not like my answer :)

ViewController.h 
#import "UIViewController.h"
#import "UILabel.h"


@interface ViewController: UIViewController

@property (strong, nonatomic) IBOutlet UILabel *quoteLabel;

- (IBAction)quoteButtonPressed: (id) sender;

@end
ViewController.m 
#import "ViewController.h"

@implementation ViewController

- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];
    // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib
}

- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning {
    [super didReceiveMemoryWarning];
    // Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}


- (IBAction)quoteButtonPressed:(id)sender {
    //Add your code below!
    self.quoteLabel.text = @"A stitch in time saves nine";

}

@end

Hi Anne,

You don't have a period at the end of your string, simply add that and the challenge will pass.

self.quoteLabel.text = @"A stitch in time saves nine.";
