iOS Swift Basics (retired) Control Flow For-In Loop

content after entering print command has \n attached to it, how to remove this?

I'm trying the for-in loop for the lesson, I'm aware of the change to swift where println has become just print, I enter print(todo[0]) and it returns the content with a \n for some reason, help appreciated.

The /n is part of the reason they've changed println to print

print used to just print it all on one line, and println would put the print statement on a new line

the /n just means that when you type print, it automatically puts whatever is assigned to it on a new line, which made println useless

So does this mean the \n won't be seen by the user even though I can see it on xcode? Thanks for the reply

yes, its only seen in the side bar, not in the output where everything prints.
