How to inherit from Polygon class using the "base" keyword. What is the solution to the test?

Can not see where my bummer is

Polygon.cs 
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    class Polygon
    {
        public readonly int NumSides;

        public Polygon(int numSides)
        {
            NumSides = numSides;
        }
    }
  class Square:Polygon
  {
    public readonly int SideLength; 
    public Square(int sideLength):base(4)
    {SideLength = sideLength;}
  }
}

The checks on this quiz are space sensitive on the colons so you need to put space before and after the colons

namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    class Polygon
    {
        public readonly int NumSides;

        public Polygon(int numSides)
        {
            NumSides = numSides;
        }
    }

  class Square : Polygon
  {
    public readonly int SideLength; 
    public Square(int sideLength) : base(4)
    {SideLength = sideLength;}
  }
}
