1,430 PointsWhy isn't my let firstTag just showing "swift"?
The code challenge isn't accepting this as the right answer because description is printing out "Tag(name: "swift") instead of just "swift". how do I fix it so that it just displays the name, "swift"
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)";
}
}
let firstTag = Tag(name: "swift")
let firstPost = Post(title: "iOSDevelopment", author: "Apple", tag: firstTag);
let postDescription = firstPost.description()

I've looked at your code and realized you must do this: let firstPost = Post(title: "iOSDevelopment", author: "Apple", tag: firstTag.name);
By doing firstTag.name, you're obtaining the correct value only.
