iOS Development Techdegree Student 1,221 PointsIn need of some pointers
Hi,
Since we have not covered func and return, we only needed to include the code. When including the code, Xcode informed me that there was a Bool Vs Int conflict. Could someone hint me what I can improve on.
Thanks!
func fizzBuzz(n: Int) -> String {
switch n {
case n % 3 == 0: print("Fizz")
case n % 5 == 0: print("Buzz")
case n % 15 == 0: print ("FizzBuzz")
}
return "\(n)"
}

if (n % 3 == 0) && (n % 5 == 0) {
return "FizzBuzz"
} else if (n % 3 == 0) {
return "Fizz"
} else if (n % 5 == 0) {
return "Buzz"
} else {
return "\(n)"
}

23,970 PointsHere is the answer, see if you can figure out what it is doing
for i in 1...100{
if (i & 3 == 0) && (i % 5 == 0){
print("FizzBuzz")
}else if i & 3 == 0{
print("Fizz")
}else if i % 5 == 0{
print("Buzz")
}else{
print(i)
}
}

iOS Development Techdegree Student 1,221 PointsThanks Jeff, your help is much appreciated. I also viewed the Treehouse video that explains the exact same answer and I do understand what it is doing.
However, I guess, I have trouble understanding the question in the Code Challenge. Could you please explain the following for me: (1) The question reads to not loop over a range of values using a For or While Loop? (2) I did not had to worry over the default case since it already has been taking care of by the Return Number? (3) Why would we use "i"
Please, advise

23,970 PointsHi Michael -
"I" is just a placeholder so that you can iterate through the values
Here is another example that may assist you in understanding, if you run in your playground you will see that it prints the colors because it is iterating through them
var colors = ["red","blue", "orange"]
for color in colors{
print(color)
}

iOS Development Techdegree Student 1,221 PointsThank you Steve!
The For/In loop example you provided makes sense to me as well as the "i" placeholder. I would assume you could choose any letter - but "i" of "integer" makes more sense.
Yet, when copy past your first feedback into the code challenge editor I receive the following message "Double check your logic for Fizz values and make sure you're returning the correct string!"
Not sure what is incorrect. Please, advise

Let me try again and if needed I'll contact Treehouse Support. I am using FireFox, so I am not sure.
