Not sure why I am receiving a compile error on my code, in Xcode it runs fine.
struct Tag {
let name: String
}
struct Post {
let title: String
let author: String
let tag: Tag
}
let firstPost: Post

57,712 PointsHi Freddy,
Testing your code in Xcode only shows whether you've done something syntactically correct. Xcode doesn't know the answer to the challenges.
Here, you've created a new struct called Post
and now you want to create an instance of that, stored in a constant called firstPost
. To do this, you need to initialize each of the stored properties with an appropriate value. There are three in Post
one of which is its own struct called Tag
- you need to create a new one of those too, initializing its stored property, name
.
So, your line would look like:
let firstPost = Post(title: "Treehouse blog", author: "S. Hunter", tag: Tag(name: "Swift, iOS"))
I hope that helps.
Steve.
