It says make sure I am adding an instance method to the struct and the thing incorrect but when I run it in a playground it works for what I want. Whats wrong?
struct Person {
let firstName: String
let lastName: String
}
func fullName(firstName: String, lastName: String) {
return(firstName + " " + lastName)
}

28,558 PointsThere are a couple of issues:
You are meant to add the method to the struct, that means it has to be defined within the struct, similarly to the
firstName
andlastName
properties. You have defined the method outside the struct.The method is not meant to take any parameters, it's just meant to return the
firstName
andlastName
properties already defined in the struct.You are not defining a return type for your method.
If you fix those three issues like this:
struct Person {
let firstName: String
let lastName: String
func fullName() -> String {
return firstName + " " + lastName
}
}
Then your code will work.
