4,128 PointsI am not sure what I am doing wrong here. Can someone help?
When I check this it says: Remeber to append the values from each case statement to the correct array. What do I do?
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 capital in world {
switch capital {
case "BEL", "LIE", "BGR": europeanCapitals.append(capital)
case "IND", "VNM": asianCapitals.append(capital)
default: otherCapitals.append(capital)
}
}

pairs, but right now you are trying to switch on the pair instead of just the key
. With that in mind, when you are appending, you should also be appending the value
to the new array.
I've provided a pretty detailed answer to a previous post if you'd like to have a look.
Nice work! :)
