Hi Paul,

The syntax to make a propery both getable and settable looks like this

{ get set }

So that means the code for the code challenge looks like this

protocol UserType {

    var name: String { get }
    var age: Int { get set }

}

One tip... Use the playground in Xcode. It gives better error messages / feedback and makes learning a lot more fun because you get a much better feeling for programming in Swift.

I hope that helps,

Mike
