1,236 PointsHow do I assign the Int a number within the variable. The video demonstrated an if-let statement. Thanks.
enum Speed: Int {
case Slow = 10
case Medium = 50
case Fast = 100
}
var turtleSpeed = Speed(rawValue: 10)
// The variable above just isn't working the way I need it to for the challenge.
enum Speed: Int {
case Slow = 10
case Medium = 50
case Fast = 100
}
var turtleSpeed = Speed(rawValue: 1) {
yourSpeed(turtleSpeed)
}

47,912 Pointsenums aren't constructed in the same way as structs or classes. In this case, I think you're trying to get the rawValue property of one of the possible enum cases. In the code snippet I'm about to give you, I'm going to assume you're looking for the number 10. Here's how to get the rawValue of an enum:
enum Speed: Int {
case Slow = 10
case Medium = 50
case Fast = 100
}
//You don't use object constructor syntax. Just assume that Swift already made an instance of that enum for you that you can use
var turtleSpeed = Speed.Slow.rawValue
yourSpeed(turtleSpeed)

1,236 PointsThank you Michael. I also like your additional text to calculate "your speed" literally and make it yourSpeed. Thanks a ton!
