3,146 PointsI'm not sure how to add "points" to the "height" and "width" properties inside the method
The coding challenge says that I need to "provide a means to increase the size of our Button. So we are going to add a method named incrementBy which will accept a parameter named points. (Within the method add points to the width and height properties)." I'm not sure on the specifics of this challenge and don't know how else to make my method work better. It says that I forgot to add "points" to the property "width" within the "incrementBy" method.
class Button {
var width: Double
var height: Double
init(width:Double, height:Double){
self.width = width
self.height = height
}
func incrementBy(points: Double) {
}
}

14,575 PointsHello Austin :
You are close, all you need to do is โAddโ the points. Obviously you do this when calling the method, but you have to set it up first.
class Button {
var width: Double
var height: Double
init(width:Double, height:Double){
self.width = width
self.height = height
}
func incrementBy(points: Double){
width += points // add โpoints"
height += points // add โpoints"
}
}
easy right ?
Enjoy the coding
