Create instances with classes

Hi there,

I tried for a very long time but I still can't see my fault.. Can anybody help?

objects.swift 
// Enter your code below

class Shape {
    var numberOfSides: Int

    init(numberOfSides: Int) {
        self.numberOfSides = numberOfSides
    }

    let someShape = Shape(numberOfSides: 4)
}

He Sebastion,

It looks like the only thing you did wrong is you declared your someShape constant inside your Shape class. Move it outside the class like so:

class Shape {
    var numberOfSides: Int

    init(numberOfSides: Int) {
        self.numberOfSides = numberOfSides
    }
}

let someShape = Shape(numberOfSides: 4)

and you should pass the challenge.
