You'll need to declare hasBonus, and powerPoints as a variable, or constant before you provide the output type of bool, or int. Is this question tied to a particular lesson, or just a general question? If I was clear on the expected result I might be able to assist more clearly.

Below, is a spin off what you made above. It might be something you could use as a guide or template to help solve your issue. If you copy the content below in a playground you'll see how the print values change when the powerPoints variable is modified from 6 to another number.

var powerPoints = 6

if powerPoints > 3 { print("True: (powerPoints) is greater than 3") } else { print("False: (powerPoints) is less than 3") }

I hope this helps.
