The challenge say you should omit the external name, that's one problem. The other is that you are only returning self without using the input function, instead you should return aString(self).

thks but doest work anyway

Can you post your updated code? Because I just passed the challenge with this code, your code, with an omitted external name and the return I mentioned in my answer.

extension String {

func transform(_ aString: (String) -> String) -> String {

return aString(self)
}

}

I've passed it too, thks anyway
