Can't do this Code Challenge for Swift3 basics, Please help!

In this game of ours, we have an odd scoring mechanism . At the end of the round, if your score is 10, you lose! If it's anything but 10, you win.

Declare a constant named isWinner and assign the results of a comparison operation to check whether the player has won or not. For example, if the total score is not 10, then the player has won and isWinner should equal true. (Hint: Use the NOT operator)

operators.swift
// Enter your code below

var initialScore = 8

initialScore += 1

 let isWinner =

The code below evaluates whether the initialScore is not equal to 10 and then stores the result in the isWinner constant. Since 9 is not equal to 10, hence the expression evaluates to true. Hope this helps :)

var initialScore = 8
initialScore += 1

let isWinner = (initialScore != 10)
