I don`t understand what should be the answer

Hi,

Im stuck and Ive tried a lot of variations to pass this task, but I`m out of ideas.

Whats wrong? Maybe I didnt understood the question correctly? Can you explain what is the question and solution to it?

Frog.cs 
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    class Frog
    {
        public readonly int TongueLength;
        public readonly int ReactionTime;
        public int reactionTime;

            public int setTime()
            {
            return reactionTime = ReactionTime;
            }


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

        public bool EatFly(int distanceToFly)
            {
            return TongueLength >= distanceToFly;
            }
    }
}

The instructions didn't say anything about creating a new "setTime" method.

And the "reactionTime" (starting with lower case "r") isn't intended to be another field, the instructions say it is *"a second parameter to the constructor ".
