The nextFrame method in this section is an example of where the validation is too precise. In general, the following two blocks of code are equivalent:
if(condition)
{
    option 1
}
else
{
    option 2
}
if(!condition)
{
    option 2
}
else
{
    option 1
}
However the validator will only accept one of these two structures when it comes to the new code in the nextFrame method.

The given arguments for the last instruction (setting the Boss class's constructor) in part 31 are wrong.
