Whats's wrong in this question.

You need to animate an image (named imageView) so that it scales up to twice its size when it is tapped. Start by simple calling the animate() method of the image.

CodeChallenge.java 
// Use the variable named 'imageView'
public void animate() {
        imageView.setScaleX(0);
        imageView.setScaleY(0);
        imageView.animate().scaleX(2).scaleY(2).start(); 
    }

Hi Rajesh,

I had a lot of trouble with this question too.

Here is the code that worked for me as a future reference for anyone that comes across this question:

imageView.animate().scaleX(2).scaleY(2);
