iceCream.removeValue(forKey: "AP") let applePie = "AP"

// Enter your code below
var iceCream: [String : String] = ["CC": "Chocolate Chip",
"AP": "Apple Pie",
"PB": "Peanut Butter"]

It is not asking you to remove the value just retrieve it

var iceCream = ["CC": "Chocolate Chip", "AP": "Apple Pie", "PB": "Peanut Butter"]
iceCream["RR"] = "Rocky Road"
//This is how you retrieve the value
let applePie = iceCream["AP"]
iceCream["CC"] = "Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough"
