You should first review the previous challenge videos and write down good notes of how to call properly to a function. You have there two big problems:
- 1st, the function parameters (the ones that are received between parenthesis). You first put the name and then the type, so it would be like this: "(a: Int, b: Int)". Then since we are asked to name them to be more specific, we add "value" and "divisor" before them.
- 2nd, since you're writing a return code, you need to specify the return type at the end of the function declaration like "-> Int"
This is the challenge solution, but try to understand and keep up the good work!
// Enter your code below
func getRemainder(value a: Int, divisor b: Int) -> Int {
return a%b
}
let result = getRemainder(value: 10, divisor: 3)
