3,191 Pointscustom initializer task - what am I doing wrong?!
the more I look at the instructions to this task the more confused I get. I feel like I wrote the right code, so I cannot for the life of me understand why it keeps saying "Bummer. Don't use the swift memberwise initializer. Add your own custom initializer as specified in the description."
I assume the problem has something to do with how and where I assign the value to "description", but I am honestly lost. Please help. I cannot move on in my life before I have solved this...
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, aplha: Double) {
self.red = red
self.green = green
self.blue = blue
self.alpha = alpha
description = "red: \(red), green: \(green), blue: \(blue), alpha: \(alpha)"
}
}
