I'm suppose to create a function call FizzBuzz
func fizzBuzz(n: Int) -> String {
// Enter your code between the two comment markers
for i in 1...100 {
if (n % 3 == 0) && (n % 5 == 0) {
print("FizzBuzz")
} else if (n % 3 == 0) {
print("Fizz")
} else if (n % 5 == 0) {
print("Buzz")
} else {
print(n)
}
// End code
}

Treehouse TeacherYes, you are. But the problem here is that the "devil is in the details" so to speak. The instructions say explicitly on step 3 to change all print statements to return, and further down it says to not loop over a range (they'll take care of that). This allows Treehouse to send your data specific information to determine if your code works (which is likely why you return the value instead of print it). Take a look at the solution:
func fizzBuzz(n: Int) -> String {
if n % 3 == 0 && n % 5 == 0 {
return "FizzBuzz"
} else if n % 3 == 0 {
return "Fizz"
} else if n % 5 == 0 {
return "Buzz"
} else {
return "\(n)"
}
}
I cannot stress enough how important it is when doing a code challenge to read the instructions. I've also fallen victim to this and had to stop and say to myself: "Okay, I know what I thought they wanted me to do. But what did they ACTUALLY say to do?". Rarely are what I think they said and what they actually said the same thing :)
