Identifying the different parts of the code.

How do I Identify the different parts of the code. Which part defines the type of the variable? Which part is the name of the variable? What order should they be in?

Generally speaking, the syntax is as follows: 1) The first part "Orange" is always the data type. The next part is the name of the variable which in this case is "favoriteColor" and the final part "orange" is always the value. the reason I think you are getting confused here is because in this challenge you have created a new Object, which is of the type Orange. Hope this helps! P.S anyone correct me if I am wrong!
