Cant seem to get my frogs in a row. Have tried Frog mike - new Frog(); and var mike = new Frog(); and even tried var mik

I am thinking that the code is close and have tried every variation I can think of. Can someone point me in a better direction?

Program.cs 
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main()
        {            
         var frog = new Frog(mike) ;
        }
    }
}
Frog.cs 
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
  class Frog
  {
    public string name;

    {name = name;}
  }
}

Did you pass task 1?

For task 1, you were asked to create an empty class named Frog, but it looks like you have some stuff in there. It should stay empty for task 2, did you add that stuff later? Anyway, that stuff is not part of this challenge (nor is it proper syntax) so keep the Frog class empty.

Now for task 2, you did get close but I see two errors:

  • the new variable name should be mike but you wrote frog
  • a default constructor as you are using here would not take an argument

So you probably want something more like:

            var mike = new Frog();
