cant formulate the bool

cant seem to figure how to express the boolean expression on this one.

struct Queue<Element> {

     var array: [Element] = []

     var isEmpty: Bool {
           for question in array{
                if question = 0{
                    return true
                }
           }
     }
}

One thing that I've noticed (I've not done this course so can't answer, sorry) is that you're assigning into question using a single-equals, rather than comparing using a double-equals.

So changing your line to:

if question == 0 {

}

would be creating the conditional statement you intend.

Sorry I can't help any further, though - good luck!

Steve.

You do not need to use the word question, you are just asking if the array is empty. Also you need to use the ==

struct Queue<Element> {

    var array: [Element] = []

  var isEmpty: Bool {
        if array.count == 0 {
            return true
        } else {
            return false
        }
    }

}
