iOS Swift Collections and Control Flow Control Flow With Loops Working With Loops

i need help please

I dont understand the question fully.

loops.swift
let numbers = [2,8,1,16,4,3,9]
var sum = 0
var counter = 0

// Enter your code below

while counter <= 6 {
  print(counter)
  counter += 1
  sum += counter
}

What exactly is your question? Like what is the task you are stuck on?

Try giving this a try! ; ) let numbers = [2,8,1,16,4,3,9] var sum = 0 var counter = 0

while counter < numbers.count { sum += (numbers[counter]) print(numbers[counter]) counter += 1

}

Also PLS do me a favour and mark this as a the best answer! ; )

Now that we have the while loop set up, it's time to compute the sum! Using the value of counter as an index value, retrieve each value from the array and add it to the value of sum.

For example: sum = sum + newValue. Or you could use the compound addition operator sum += newValue where newValue is the value retrieved from the array.

I can't figure out the second part of the problem, thanks for replying!

thank you (:
