Hi, I wanted to know how come we don't need to "import" the "FactBook.swift" at the top of the "ViewController". thanks

How come we don't need to import a file to use what's in it ?

Because the Swift compiler does it for you. The only time you'll need to import anything into Swift is when you're using a bridging-header to import old objective-c APIs/frameworks. Other than that, you're good to go!
