Advanced Mixin Arguments 6 of 6

I don't get it. The result I get is Compilation Error. What exactly is wrong?

Use the mixin we just wrote to create a series of classes for the colors: red, orange, yellow, and green.

''' /* Write your SCSS code below. */

@mixin square ($size, $color: black) { height: $size; width: $size; border: 1px solid $color; }

@mixin rainbow ($colors...) { @each $colors in $colors { .#{$color} { background: $color; } } }

.box { @include square ($color: red, $size: 10px); }

@include rainbow(red, orange, yellow, green); '''

Hi Veronica,

Problem is this part --> @mixin rainbow ($colors...) { @each $colors in $colors { .#{$color} { background: $color; } } }

You need to say --> @each $color in $colors NOT @each $colors in $colors
