Adding a dictionary to an array item (Swift Basics: Collections)

Trying to add a dictionary to an array item as the extra credit for that section assigns. But I can't seem to figure it out I've tried doing this but obviously its wrong haha Any help on how this could be accomplished? <a href="http://imgur.com/8i4IU7E"><img src="http://i.imgur.com/8i4IU7E.png" title="source: imgur.com" /></a> http://i.imgur.com/8i4IU7E.png

In Swift (unlike some other languages), arrays can only be of a single type. So if you want dictionaries in an array, every item in the array has to be a dictionary. You can't have some strings and some dictionaries. Other than that, your code looks good!
