I have no idea what I am asked to accomplish!

I couldn't get this done and I have no clue why!

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

  let description: String

  // Add your code below
  init (red: Double, green: Double, blue: Double, alpha: Double, description: String) {
  self.red = red
  self.green = green
  self.blue = blue
  self.alpha = alpha
  self.description = "red: \(red), green: \(green), blue: \(blue), alpha: \(alpha)"
  }

}

the init function takes the red, blue, green and alpha values as parameters and sets the value of the description, so description is not something you have beforehand to be fed into the init, the init creates it, so remove description as a parameter and it will pass.
