Hi Harshil, You've almost got it done. The only thing that you need to correct is the syntax for your instance of someShape. Remember, The created instance of Type Shape must have the properties defined in the class. So just add numberOfSides property to your instance and you'll be done!

Here is how I did it! Hope this helps!

 class Shape {

    let numberOfSides: Int

    init(numberOfSides: Int) {
        self.numberOfSides = numberOfSides
    }
}

let someShape = Shape(numberOfSides: 4)
