The Text component uses the text property to set its displayed string.

2fill in blank

medium

Complete the code to set the text of a TextMeshProUGUI component.

Unity

using TMPro;
using UnityEngine;

public class Example : MonoBehaviour {
    public TextMeshProUGUI tmpText;

    void Start() {
        tmpText.[1] = "Welcome to TextMeshPro!";

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Trying to use 'content' or 'value' instead of 'text'.

TextMeshProUGUI uses the text property to set the displayed string, similar to the UI Text component.

3fill in blank

hard

Fix the error in the code to change the font size of a TextMeshProUGUI component.

Unity

using TMPro;
using UnityEngine;

public class Example : MonoBehaviour {
    public TextMeshProUGUI tmpText;

    void Start() {
        tmpText.fontSize [1] 36;
    }
}

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using '==' instead of '=' causes a syntax error.

To assign a new font size, use the assignment operator =. Using == is a comparison, not assignment.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to create a dictionary mapping words to their lengths, but only include words longer than 4 characters.

Unity

var words = new string[] {"apple", "cat", "banana", "dog"};
var lengths = new Dictionary<string, int>() {
    {"apple", 5},
    {"banana", 6}
};

var filteredLengths = new Dictionary<string, int>();
foreach (var word in words) {
    if (word.[1] > 4) {
        filteredLengths[word] = word.[2];
    }
}

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

ALength

BCount

CLength()

DCount()

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using Length() or Count() which are invalid for strings.

In C#, strings have a Length property (without parentheses) to get their length.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to create a dictionary from words to their uppercase forms, but only include words starting with 'a'.

Unity

var words = new string[] {"apple", "banana", "avocado", "cherry"};
var result = new Dictionary<string, string>();
foreach (var word in words) {
    if (word.[1]('a')) {
        result[[2]] = word.[3]();
    }
}

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

AStartsWith

Bword

CToUpper

DContains

Attempts:

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using Contains instead of StartsWith.

Forgetting parentheses on ToUpper().

Use StartsWith('a') to check the first letter, use word as the dictionary key, and ToUpper() to convert the word to uppercase.
