Append a value to an array

I don't know how to append the value to the results array! var results: [Int] = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10] is not correct?

Appending a value means to add one after the array has been created, in the example you post you are setting it to a specific value when it is created, which is not the same thing.

Appending to an array is actually pretty simple though, arrrays have a method called append that does exactly what the name suggests.

Example:

var results: [Int] = []

results.append(5) // You can type pure values
// results is now equal to [5]

results.append(5 + 2) // You can also type equations and other expressions like that
// results is now equal to [5, 7]
