iOS Development Techdegree Student 488 Pointscan somebody go into more detail about this? How do we know which ones append to which arrays? I'm lost
can somebody give me some tips on where to start
var europeanCapitals: [String] = []
var asianCapitals: [String] = []
var otherCapitals: [String] = []
let world = [
"BEL": "Brussels",
"LIE": "Vaduz",
"BGR": "Sofia",
"USA": "Washington D.C.",
"MEX": "Mexico City",
"BRA": "Brasilia",
"IND": "New Delhi",
"VNM": "Hanoi"]
for (key, value) in world {
"europeanCapitals": will have values of
}

41,120 PointsDo you need help with the code/logic, or just the locations of the capitals? If the latter: the first three are European, the next three are 'other', and the last two are Asian. Append the appropriate capitals (which are the dictionary values) to the arrays, rather than the countries (which are the keys).

41,120 PointsThe idea is that you create a switch statement, where you are switching on the key, and depending on which case that key satisfies, append the corresponding value to your chosen array. Here's the syntax to get you started, demonstrating the logic for European capitals:
for (key, value) in world {
// Enter your code below
switch key {
case "BEL", "BGR", "LIE" : europeanCapitals.append(value)
// Insert other cases here
}
// End code
}
