1,850 Points"Add a getter method to the access the value of the fahrenheit property." How do you access the value of variable in get
This makes no sense, how can we be getting a value in get when it is only used to return a value, not to grab a value, and they;re asking you to grab fahrenheit when it's a stored property, it doesn't make sense or wasn't clear.. Thanks!
class Temperature {
var celsius: Float = 0.0
var fahrenheit: Float {
get {
fahrenheit = newValue
} set {
celsius = (fahrenheit - 32) / 1.8
}
}
}

class Temperature {
var celsius: Float = 0.0
var fahrenheit: Float {
get {
return (celsius * 1.8) + 32.0 /* here you will calculate and **get**
the value of fahrenheit variable from any given celsius temperature (hence you "get" it)*/
}
set {
celsius = ((newValue-32)/1.8) /* here you will **set**
the value of the celsius temperature from the calculated
fahrenheit value (since fahrenheit is a calculated variable,
it will always be calculated relative to the celsius temperature variable)*/
}
}
}
