HELP

Create a variable named travel and assign it an instance of the Expense struct with the following values for each stored property: Description: "Flight to Cupertino" and Amount: 500.00.

MY CODE:

struct Expense { var description: String var amount: Double }

var travel = Expense(Description: "Flight to Cupertino", Amount: "500.00")

expense and amount should not be capitalized (the names of the parameters in the initalizer match the names of the properties defined in your struct. their names start with lower case letters) also the amount property is of type double, not string. 

struct Expense {
  var description: String
  var amount: Double
}

var travel = Expense(description: "Flight to Cupertino", amount: 500.00)
