My code still won't work and I'm drowning
Help!
// Enter your code below
func coordinates (location: String) -> (Double, Double) {
var lat: Double = 0.0, lon: Double = 0.0
{
case "Eiffel Tower": lat = 48.8582; lon = 2.2945
case "Great Pyramid": lat = 29.9792; lon = 31.1344
case "Sydney Opera House": lat = 33.8587; lon = 151.2140
default: return (0,0)
}
return (lat, lon)
}

4,688 PointsHi there! Your code runs perfectly outside of the Treehouse compiler, but I believe they were looking to see an external name and a local name for your parameters. If you insert the "for" before your local parameter location:
func coordinates (for location: String) -> (Double, Double) {
it should work. Also, you forget to enter switch before your wrote your cases:
switch location
{
case "Eiffel Tower": lat = 48.8582; lon = 2.2945
case "Great Pyramid": lat = 29.9792; lon = 31.1344
case "Sydney Opera House": lat = 33.8587; lon = 151.2140
default: return (0,0)
}
Other than those two minor errors, I was able to get it running.
Cheers!
