wondering where I'm going wrong

I've seen from other peoples questions that I could have simply written return TongueLength >= distanceToFly; in the Map class lesson the bool value was given a name so I wanted to as well, where am I going wrong in this approach?

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

        public Frog(int tongueLength)
        {
            TongueLength = tongueLength;
        }
        public bool EatFly(int distanceToFLy)
        {
        bool inReach = TongueLength >= distanceToFly; 
            return inReach;
        }
    }
}

I just got it, lol. Going to have to learn to be neater, It was a capital L in the distanceToFly paramater that had kept the code from running.

One of Parker's Principles of Programming is "Typos and misspellings are the bane of tyros and gurus alike". :wink:

That's a neat quote, kinda like the devil is in the details no matter who you are.
