821 PointsReturn issue
I have listened to the video (while trying to filter out the prop explanations and game) about a half dozen times and finally filtered down the code to the issue without any extraneous code as follows:
struct Person {
let firstName: String
let lastName: String
}
func fullName(firstName: String, lastName: String) -> String {
var someName: [Person] = []
return someName
}
I get an error "Cannot convert return expression of type '[Person]' to return type 'String'" on the return

13,515 PointsThe function needs to be inside the Person struct. The function is supposed to take no parameters.
struct Person {
let firstName: String
let lastName: String
// First challenge
func fullName() -> String {
return "\(firstName) \(lastName)"
}
}
// Second Challenge
let aPerson = Person(firstName: "John", lastName: "Smith")
let myFullName = aPerson.fullName()
