Hi
I am able to run this code nicely in Xcode but not on tree house. Just wondering what i have missed
/**
For this code challenge, letβs define a math operation as a function that
carries out some work on two integers and returns an integer as well. An
example is the function below, `differenceBetweenNumbers`, which takes two
integers and calculates the difference between the numbers. After calculating,
it returns the difference.
*/
func differenceBetweenNumbers(a: Int, b:Int) -> (Int) {
return a - b
}
// Enter your code below
func mathOperation(someFunc: ((Int , Int) -> (Int)) , c: Int , d: Int) -> (Int) {
return someFunc(c , d)
}
let difference = mathOperation(differenceBetweenNumbers, 2, 1 )

Second, Xcode should have forced you to include the parameter names for your second and third parameter in the "mathOperation". If you include more than one parameter for your function, you have to include the name for the second parameter and on. I'm assuming it could do with that as well.
Otherwise, your code looks fine to me aside from those two observations.
