I dont understand how to fix this compiler error : FrogStats.cs(11,73): error CS1061: Type `Treehouse.CodeChallenges.Fro

FrogStats.cs(11,73): error CS1061: Type Treehouse.CodeChallenges.Frog' does not contain a definition fortongueLength' and no extension method tongueLength' of typeTreehouse.CodeChallenges.Frog' could be found. Are you missing an assembly reference? Frog.cs(3,18): (Location of the symbol related to previous error) Compilation failed: 1 error(s), 0 warnings

FrogStats.cs 
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    class FrogStats
    {
        public static double GetAverageTongueLength(Frog[] frogs)
        {

            for(int i = 0;i < frogs.Length;i++)
            {
                Frog frog = frogs[i];
                double TongueLengthTotel = TongueLengthTotel + frogs[i].tongueLength;
                double TongueLengthAvrage = TongueLengthTotel/frogs.Length;
                return TongueLengthAvrage;
            }
        }
    }
}
Frog.cs 
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    public class Frog
    {
        public double TongueLength { get; }

        public Frog(double tongueLength)
        {
            TongueLength = tongueLength;
        }
    }
}

That particular error is caused by spelling "TongueLength" with a lower-case "t" in "frogs[i].tongueLength". But you have a few other issues to address. Here's a few hints:

  • declare the variables before the loop
  • accumulate the total inside the loop
  • calculate and return the average after the loop
