"Set adapter as the default adapter for the AppListActivity using the setListAdaptor () which takes an adapter as a parameter?" i am writing "setListAdaptor(adapter);" to the code but it doesn't accept it.. Can u please tell me where i am wrong? Thanks

AppListActivity.java 
import android.app.ListActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;

public class AppListActivity extends ListActivity {

    public String[] mApps = {
        "Instagram",
        "Pinterest",
        "Pocket",
        "Twitter"

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_app_list);
        ArrayAdapter<String> adopter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, mApps);
