I don't understand why my answer won't work

I've tried re-reading and understanding the lessons, but I don't understand what is wrong with my code

objects.swift 
// Enter your code below

class Shape {
var numberOfSides: Int

init(numberOfSides: Int) {
self.numberOfSides = numberOfSides
}

}

let someShape = Shape()

You need to pass your shape a numberOfSides: argument or else it doesn't have the information it needs to actually initialize the object
