Enum Challenge Task

Hi Peter,

This challenge has caught a few users off guard because of the last example used in the previous video, what the task is actually asking for is the rawValue of Speed.Slow which we can get by simply using the below code.

var turtleSpeed = Speed.Slow.rawValue

Why didn't your code work?

When using the rawValue initializer we're simply creating a new instance of the enum for that given value, in this case you've specified you want the enum for the rawValue of 10 which is Speed.Slow, if the rawValue couldn't be found a nil value is returned instead.

Hope that helps.

This is, how it should look like:

enum Speed: Int {
    case Slow = 10
    case Medium = 50
    case Fast = 100
}
var turtleSpeed = Speed.Slow.rawValue

Have a look on how you should call a enum member or it´s raw value ;-)

I hope this helped

Remember that when you're creating an enum from a raw value it returns an optional. Something that you will learn in the next chapter In this challenge you need to retrieve the rawValue.

So instead of

            var turtleSpeed = Speed(rawValue: 10)

use this

            var turtleSpeed = Speed.Slow.rawValue

That should work!!

Good luck bro keep it going!!
