What would be the proper way here to return the string value. It currently returns "iOSDevelopment by Apple. Filed under Tag(name: "swift")"
I've tried creating an instance for Tag and assigning it to a constant and using that constant as the value for tag. And still had no luck.
Can't seem to figure this one out. Any help?
struct Tag {
let name: String
}
struct Post {
let title: String
let author: String
let tag: Tag
func description() -> String {
return "\(title) by \(author). Filed under \(tag)"
}
}
let firstPost = Post(title: "iOSDevelopment", author: "Apple", tag: Tag(name: "swift"))
let postDescription = firstPost.description()

71,830 PointsIf I understand correctly, you are getting
iOSDevelopment by Apple. Filed under Tag(name: "swift")
and would like to see
iOS Development by Apple. Filed under swift
instead. If so, try this for the function:
func description() -> String {
return "\(title) by \(author). Filed under \(tag.name)"
}
