I don't understand why Bummer keeps saying "year is not set at the correct value." Why? This prints year=1969 in Xcode.

What's missing... ?

nsdictionary.mm 
 NSDictionary *album= @{@"title":@"Abbey Road", @"artist":@"The Beatles"  } ;

NSMutableDictionary *albumMutable = [NSMutableDictionary dictionaryWithDictionary:album];
    [albumMutable  setObject:@1969 forKey:@"year"];

Put parenthesis around 1969. Try setObject:@"1969".
