7,481 Points./FlightActivity.java:15: error: cannot find symbol intent.getStringExtra("FUEL_LEVEL");
I can't figure out why the getStringExtra method can't be resolved...Some help please?
import android.content.*;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class FlightActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
public int fuelLevel = 0;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_flight);
// Add your code below!
Intent intent = getIntent();
intent.getStringExtra("FUEL_LEVEL");
}
}

56,413 PointsOne thing you should keep in mind is that the fuel level is an int
, and not a 'String'. It won't give you a complete answer, but I think it would give you a better message to show you the way if you took that into consideration.

44,123 PointsThat was a good hint. Now the second parameter 'defaultValue' makes sense, too. Thanks Seth.
