iOS Objective-C Basics (Retired) Fundamentals of C Variables

Posted by ChihYun Sun

I wrote an executable code on my Xcode, but it does't pass the very first challenge task of iOS Development course.

I guess the cause is wrong format of submission.

=Quote of task description= Challenge task 1 of 2 Create a float variable named 'radius' with the value '14.5'. (Do not write the main function). =Unquote=

What does it mean by "Do not write the main function"? Does it mean I skip only the "int main()" line? Or, should I also skip "return = 0;" Or, are there any other lines I should skip when submitting challenge tasks?

I'm a beginner. Any help will be appreciated.

it means dont add the main function or the return statement. just add what the challenge asks for. since it states: Create a float variable named 'radius' with the value '14.5'. (Do not write the main function).

all you need to do is write:

float radius = 14.5;
