I can't understand what to do please help me out.

In the editor, I’ve declared a struct named RGBColor that models a color object in the RGB space.

Your task is to write a custom initializer method for the object. Using the initializer assign values to the first four properties. Using the values assigned to those properties create a value for the description property that is a string representation of the color object.

For example, given the values 86.0 for red, 191.0 for green, 131.0 for blue and 1.0 for alpha, each of the stored properties should hold these values and the description property should look like this:

"red: 86.0, green: 191.0, blue: 131.0, alpha: 1.0"

As mentioned above is the question, but I did not understand what to do. Please help.

Thanks in advance

structs.swift
struct RGBColor {
  let red: Double
  let green: Double
  let blue: Double
  let alpha: Double

  let description: String

  // Add your code below


}
