Finally, we forgot to add that we need to learn iOS development prior to building an app. Insert a new item titled "Learn iOS" at the second position in the todo array.

arrays.swift
var todo = ["Learn Swift", "Build App", "Deploy App"]
todo += ["Debug App", "Fix Bugs"]
let item = todo.removeAtIndex(2)
todo.insert("Learn IOS", atIndex: 2)

hey that problem said " add at second position"

so for that it will be

todo.insert("Learn IOS", atIndex: 1)

it worked for me!

Jonathan,

Remember that arrays begin with a base index of 0. So, if you have 5 items in your array, your indexes are 0-4. If you have 10 items in the array, the indexes are 0-9.

With that being said, when you call todo.insert("Learn iOS", atIndex: 2), you are actually inserting the string as the third item in the array.

Just change your index to 1 to insert the string into the second index of the array.

Hope this helps!

Nick, this didn't help. Please just give me the answer. I've tried everything.
