Question

Here’s the code:

public CellState(Context context, GameState state) {
    super(context);

    setLayoutParams(new GridView.LayoutParams(70, 70));
    setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.CENTER_CROP);
    setPadding(8, 8, 8, 8);
    setClickable(true);

    mGameState = state;

    //TODO: call clearState
}

So I have to call clearState, which has already been written. This is from a java/android intro tutorial and I’ve never programmed before so I’ve been slogging through. Any help on what to do to call clearState would be appreciated.

clearState code:

public void clearState() {
    mState = EMPTY;
}

Write this in place of your comment:

clearState();

Functions are called by first writing the name of the function, then parenthesis, and ; in the end. If the function takes any parameters, then those go inside the parenthesis, multiple params separated with commas.
