Can someone please help me out with this problem?
struct RGBColor {
let red: Double
let green: Double
let blue: Double
let alpha: Double
let description: String
// Add your code below
} init(red: Double, green: Double, blue: Double, alpha: Double){
self.red = 86.0
self.green = 191.0
self.blue = 131.0
self.alpha = 1.0
self.description = "red: \(red), green: \(green), blue: \(blue), alpha: \(alpha)"
}
var myRGB = RGBColor(red: 30.0, green: 100.0, blue: 41.0, alpha: 15.0)

Everything is correct, except you added the init outside the closing curly brace for the struct. Just move that closing curly brace to after your code (put the init inside the struct) and all is good. :)

2,576 PointsHello Jason, could you explain why the self.description = syntax works? I understand the string interpolation but why the ("red:) and not just ("(red))? sorry if the parenthesis make my question confusing, I just don't understand the purpose of red: etc. Matthew please let me know if you see this before Jason does lol...thank you!
