3,171 PointsProblem with answer in the compiler
Xcode seems to like my answer, but the compiler doesnt. Any clue why?
struct Tag { let name: String }
struct Post { let title: String let author: String let tag: Tag }
let firstPost = Post.init(title: "iOSDevelopment", author: "Apple", tag: Tag.init(name: "swift"))
func description(_: Post) -> String { return "(firstPost.title) by (firstPost.author). Filed under (firstPost.tag.name)" }
let postDescription = description(firstPost)
struct Tag {
let name: String
}
struct Post {
let title: String
let author: String
let tag: Tag
}
let firstPost = Post.init(title: "iOSDevelopment", author: "Apple", tag: Tag.init(name: "swift"))
func description(_: Post) -> String {
return "\(firstPost.title) by \(firstPost.author). Filed under \(firstPost.tag.name)"
}
let postDescription = description(firstPost)

3,171 PointsNevermind I figured it out. I had to move the function into the struct (as below)
struct Tag { let name: String }
struct Post { let title: String let author: String let tag: Tag
func description() -> String {
return "\(title) by \(author). Filed under \(tag.name)"
}
}
let firstPost = Post(title: "iOSDevelopment", author: "Apple", tag: Tag(name: "swift"))
let postDescription = firstPost.description()
