In this game of ours, we have an odd scoring mechanism . At the end of the round, if your score is 10, you lose! If it's anything but 10, you win.
Declare a constant named isWinner and assign the results of a comparison operation to check whether the player has won or not. For example, if the total score is not 10, then the player has won and isWinner should equal true. (Hint: Use the NOT operator)
Please help me with this. The videos are not detailed enough that they taught this. in the video it says the NOT operators are let on = true and then it says let off = !on
so what are the comparisons?
// Enter your code below
var initialScore = 8
initialScore += 1
let isWinner: true

initialScore += 1
var totalScore = 10
let isWinner: Bool = totalScore >= initialScore

2,285 PointsHow?
KRIS NIKOLAISEN
54,971 PointsThe not operator is !=
let isWinner = initialScore != 10

KRIS NIKOLAISEN
54,971 PointsYes you can do it in one line and based on how the challenge is worded what it expects . Otherwise an if statement would work for more than one line.
