I'm not sure what I must do

Hello,

I'm not sure what I must do and if my code is fine.

structs.swift
struct RGBColor {
  let red: Double
  let green: Double
  let blue: Double
  let alpha: Double

  let description: String

  // Add your code below
      init(red: Double, green: Double, blue: Double, alpha: Double, description: String) {
        self.red = red
        self.green = green
        self.blue = blue
        self.alpha = alpha
        self.description = "\("red:") \(red) \("green:") \(green) \("blue:") \(blue) \("alpha:") \(alpha)"
    }
}

It's actually not the parentheses that were the problem, it was the fact that A) You didn't have commas after each value in the description and B) Description didn't need to be one of the parameters (it didn't need to be inside the parentheses). So technically you don't need to put self.description, you could just put description = blah blah.

Hope that helped!
