C# array

I didn't get the question. is it asking to create a new variable lap3 and then set the third item in the array to the value of lap3'?

like

double lap3 = 3.0;

finalLapTimes[2] = lap3;

CodeChallenge.cs 
double[] lapTimes = new double[4];

lapTimes[0] = 2.2;

double[] finalLapTimes  = new double[2] {2.2,2.3,2.5,2.8};

double lap3 = 3.0;

finalLapTimes[2] = 3.0;

Your setting the wrong value.

For task 4, the challenge says, "Set lap3 to the value in the third item of the finalLapTimes array." But you're setting it to a literal value of 3.0 instead of getting the value from the third item of the array.

And you won't be setting the third item of the array.

It also looks like you altered the task 2 code so it no longer compiles. You'll need to put that back to how it was when you passed task 2.
