Handling Errors Code Challenge

Hello community,

Stuck on this challenge. Point me in the right direction if possible. Otherwise, a solution to study works great too.

Thanks in advance :)

error.swift 
enum ParserError: Error {
  case emptyDictionary
  case invalidKey
}

struct Parser {
  var data: [String : String?]?

  func parse() throws {
     guard let value = data?["someValue"] else {
            throw ParserError.emptyDictionary
        }
        guard let key = data?["someKey"] else {
            throw ParserError.invalidKey
        }
  }
}

let data: [String : String?]? = ["someKey": nil]
let parser = Parser(data: data)
