I think My X Code doesn't work properly?

When I put in codes or try to follow the swift course my x code on the right does not sum up the same as the tutorials on the right hand side of the screen.

An example for i in 0...5{ print(i) now on the right it should say (6 times) but my one just repeats what I have already written. I know there is a tiny box and a eye box in the gully on the right hand side but it still does not say 6 only 5, which is confusing.

Please help

To post an image to Treehouse's Community, you'll have to upload it to another site and link it with Markdown. You can use something like Imgur or ImgBB. You'll wanna copy the direct link to your image from there, and then you can learn how to reference it here by reading the Markdown Cheatsheet below every typing box in the Community, or you can watch the relevant portion of the Markdown Basics course

No problem! Could you post a screenshot of the whole Xcode window? There are a few buttons I'm looking to see if you have pressed or not in a few different places

In your playground, you have the Assistant Editor open, which probably isn't what you want. That's what brings up 2 files side by side (in your screenshot, it's just the same file twice). To close it, you can hit the x button in the top right that's both below and next to a + button. After that, you have a syntax error on line 7. You need to name the variable i, as it's currently unnamed (which is a syntax error in Swift). After that, if you it the blue play triangle in the bottom left, I think you'll be good to go
