How can I pass a custom struct variables into the initializer?

Here is my code:

So I can not figure out what I should place to the location

objects.swift 
struct Location {
  let latitude: Double
  let longitude: Double
}

class Business {
    let name: String
    let location: Location
    init(name: String, location: Location) {
    self.name = name
    self.location = location
  }
}

let someBusiness = Business(name: "Some Business Name", location: )

It expects an instance of the Location struct. Which means you have to make an instance of it. You can do this in a separate line like this:

let someLocation = Location(latitude: 54.00, longitude: 32.00)
let someBusiness = Business(name: "Name", location: someLocation)

Or in one line like this:

let someBusiness = Business(name: "Name", location: Location(latitude: 54.00, longitude: 32.00))
