Treehouse Guest TeacherHow do I assign the value for "UK" to a constant called "ukCurrency."
I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong here. I'm supposed to assign the value for "UK" to a new constant called "ukCurrency."
let currencies = ["US": "Dollar", "UK": "Pound", "JP": "Yen"]
let ukCurrency = currencies.removeValueForKey("UK")

- Create a constant called "ukCurrency" using the "let" keyword.
- Pass the value to the constant by using it's index...for example... (dictionaryName(indexKey).
I would type out the code for you, but I think this is a good learning oppurtunity.
Good luck!

Treehouse Guest TeacherThanks Andreaus. I actually had tried it that way first, but couldn't get it to work! Your suggestion helped me know I was doing the right thing, though, so I kept at it and discovered it was a non-thinking error (parentheses instead of brackets!). Thanks for letting me know I was on the right track with my less convoluted option!
