2,279 PointsArguments wrong?
While doing this OOP exercise I find that something is wrong with my code and I can't I figure it out. Can someone please help me with this one? Im confused about passing an structure (Point) as an argument of the object.
struct Location {
let latitude: Double
let longitude: Double
}
class Business {
let name: String
let location : Location
init (name: String, x: Int, y: Int){
self.name = name
self.location = Location(latitude: Double(x), longitude: Double(y))
}
}
let someBusiness = Business(name: "Shampoo", location: Location(x: 12.3, y: 34.5)

When you are creating someBusiness you are passing in (name, location) only.
If you pass in x and y directly like so, it should work:
let someBusiness = Business(name: "Shampoo", x: 12.3, y: 34.5)
The initializer will convert x and y to a location for you.
Alternatively you can change the input of Business to accept (name, location) like so:
struct Location {
let latitude: Double
let longitude: Double
}
class Business {
let name: String
let location : Location
init (name: String, location: Location){
self.name = name
self.location = location
}
}
let someBusiness = Business(name: "Shampoo", location: Location(latitude: 12.3, longitude: 34.5))
This second method looks to be what you are asking for since you mention passing in a structure as an argument.

2,279 Pointsthanks a lot. now it says "extra argument 'y' in call" how can I solve this, so simple yet I'm baffled.

Should read:
let someBusiness = Business(name: "Shampoo", location: Location(latitude: 12.3, longitude: 34.5)) // <-- final paren was missing
