@mixin square($size, $color: black) {
height: $size;
width: $size;
border: 1px solid $color;
}
.box {
@include square($color: red, $size: 50px);
}
The $size and $color are placeholders, so for the @include in .box you have to declare the values. Then they ask you to switch them around so you have to write as I did above, otheriwse you could just write @include square(50px, red). Hope that helps, let me know if I can explain further.

Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Graduate 27,917 PointsHello, you have to put the @include inside the curly braces for .box:
.box {
@include square();
}

Front End Web Development Techdegree Graduate 15,834 PointsThank you! I had to screenshot that to reference back to it because I just couldn’t understand it the way the course was explaining it
