The error says Make sure you accept a single parameter of type String in your function declaration
// Enter your code below
func coordinates(location: String) -> (Double, Double) {
switch location {
case "Eiffel Tower": return (48.8582, 2.2945)
case "Great Pyramid": return (29.9792, 31.1344)
case "Sydney Opera House": return (33.8587, 151.2140)
default: return (0,0)
}
}
coordinates("job")

Courses Plus Student 26,868 Pointsyou forgot the for in the function parameter, the code challenge was very specific about it.
Declare a function named coordinates that takes a single parameter of type String, with an external name for, a local name of location
func coordinates(for location: String) -> (Double, Double) {
other than that, your function definition is fine, hope it helps. :)

Courses Plus Student 26,868 Pointsi should point out that technically this code challenge only asks that you implement the
coordinates
function, it doesn't ask that you call the function; therefore, it's fine to delete the last line in your code.Alwin Lazar V
