1,949 PointsGetting "Expected Declaration" error
I am getting an expected declaration error for description. I'm unsure why this is the case. Does it need to be created outside of the struct? Any help would be appreciated.
struct RGBColor {
let red: Double
let green: Double
let blue: Double
let alpha: Double
let description: String
// Add your code below
init(red: Double, green: Double, blue: Double, alpha: Double)
{
self.red = red
self.green = green
self.blue = blue
self.alpha = alpha
}
description = "red: \(red), green: \(green), blue: \(blue), alpha: \(alpha)"
}

23,970 PointsYou need to initialize the description
struct RGBColor {
let red: Double
let green: Double
let blue: Double
let alpha: Double
let description: String
// Add your code below
init(red: Double, green: Double, blue: Double, alpha: Double) {
self.red = red
self.green = green
self.blue = blue
self.alpha = alpha
self.description = ("red: \(red), green: \(green), blue: \(blue), alpha: \(alpha)")
}
}
