Start with creating the failable init() function with a dictionary as the parameter type. Check the title and author have values. Lastly, init all the stored properties.
init?(dict: [String: String]) {
// Check title and author have values
guard let title = dict["title"], author = dict["author"] else {
return nil
}
// Init the vales
self.title = title
self.author = author
price = dict["price"] // Optional (can be nil)
pubDate = dict["pubDate"] // Optional (can be nil)
}
