2,499 PointsI am stuck with a challenge
I need to assign an NSNumber literal with a value of '4' to the variable 'thing' and this is what I have come up with and it is obviously wrong, can someone please help!
This is the code so far (the previous part was for me to assign the id "thing" to nil
Do I need to use the assign memory directive?
id thing = nil; id thing = NSNumber *number; number = @4;

Treehouse Guest TeacherHello Ben,
After creating the id variable, you can set it to a NSNumber literal like so.
id myVariable = nil;
myVariable = @4;
I hope this helps.
