2,197 PointsSwift Recap Part 2 in Build a Simple iPhone App with Swift 3
Line 19 is not running correctly with the single quote in the double quote. It's messing up the rest of the code, so I had to remove the single quote to make it work. Someone might want to fix it.
class Point {
var x: Int
var y: Int
init(x: Int, y: Int) {
self.x = x
self.y = y
}
}
class Machine {
var location: Point
init() {
self.location = Point(x: 0, y: 0)
}
func move(_ direction: String) {
print("Do nothing! I'm a machine!")
}
}
// Enter your code below

class Robot: Machine {
override func move(_ direction: String) {
switch direction {
case "Up":
location.y += 1
case "Down":
location.y -= 1
case "Left":
location.x -= 1
case "Right":
location.x += 1
default:
break
}
}
}

7,680 PointsI am also stuck on this one. The apostrophe isnt the problem, i have a feeling its the underscore in func move(_ direction: string). I have tried everything i can think of but am still stuck with the code below. Someone please help!
class Robot: Machine { override func move(_direction: String) { switch _direction { case "Up": location.y += 1 case "Down": location.y -= 1 case "Left": location.x -= 1 case "Right": location.x += 1 default: break } } }
