Hello,
Apparently, I can't complete the next challenge. I don't know why it won't accept my code. When I test it in a playground in X-Code it works just fine.
These are the requirements:
Your task is to write a custom initializer method for the object. Using the initializer assign values to the first four properties. Using the values assigned to those properties create a value for the description property that is a string representation of the color object.
For example, given the values 86.0 for red, 191.0 for green, 131.0 for blue and 1.0 for alpha, each of the stored properties should hold these values and the description property should look like this:
"red: 86.0, green: 191.0, blue: 131.0, alpha: 1.0"
Does anybody know what the problem might be?
struct RGBColor {
let red: Double
let green: Double
let blue: Double
let alpha: Double
let description: String
// Add your code below
init(red: Double,green: Double, blue: Double, alpha: Double) {
self.red = red //86.0
self.green = green //191.0
self.blue = blue //131.0
self.alpha = alpha // 1.0
self.description = ("red: \(red),green:\(green),blue:\(blue),alpha:\(alpha)")
}
}
RGBColor.init(red: 86.0, green: 191.0, blue: 131.0, alpha: 1.0)

to be in. Specifically, there's supposed to be a space after every comma and colon in the string, like this:
"red: \(red), green: \(green), blue: \(blue), alpha: \(alpha)"

Thank you immensely for taking the time to answer.
It works. I guess that just goes to prove that I ought to be more meticulous when writing code. Thank you .
