Hi i'm stuck on the last challenge of inheritance. It asks me to Create an instance of the class RoundButton and ...

Button.swift
class Button {
  var width: Double
  var height: Double

  init(width:Double, height:Double){
    self.width = width
    self.height = height
  }
  class RoundButton : Button {
  var cornerRadius = 5.0
  }
}

var rounded = RoundButton(width: 12, height: 15)

Like this:

class Button {
  var width: Double
  var height: Double

    init(width:Double, height:Double){
     self.width = width
     self.height = height
    }
  }

class RoundButton : Button {
  var cornerRadius = 5.0
 }

var rounded = RoundButton(width: 12, height: 15)

Yes that should work

Your RoundButton class should be outside of the inherited class.

Remember your RoundButton class is a Sub Class to Button. So take it outside of the Super Class (Button) and you should be good to go.

Is what I've written right apart from the RoundButton class being inside the super class Button. Thanks for help

actually fixed it thanks for help

Glad you got it working! You wrote it correctly, just needed to put the RoundButton class below the brackets of the Button class.
