2,506 PointsI am really confused as to how to use the Tag struct in the post Struct
How can I use my tag struct in the firstPost instance?
struct Tag {
let name: String
}
struct Post{
let title: String
let author: String
let tag: Tag()
init(title: String, author: String, tag: Tag.name){
self.title = title
self.author = author
self.tag = tag
}
}
let firstPost: Post = Post.init(title: "Hello", author: "Me", tag.name= "Me")

Courses Plus Student 15,510 PointsHi Mohamed Almulla,
You are pretty close actually (nice work!).
The init function isn't required and you'll need to create/instantiate a new tag when creating the firstPost Post
So try ditching the init func and changing your firstPost to something like:
let firstPost = Post.init(title: "Hello", author: "Me", tag: Tag(name: "Me"))
// You *could* create a new tag before the firstPost then just pass that through as it's of Type tag, but why not just do it inline
Should be cooking with gas after that! Happy coding.
