First, the stored property was to be numberOfSides. It was to be a variable, and of type Int.

Second, because this is a class, you have to provide an initializer.

Third, after you have written the class, then, outside the class you can create Shape objects.

class Shape {
  var numberOfSides: Int

  init(numberOfSides: Int) {
    self.numberOfSides = numberOfSides
  }
}

let someShape = Shape(numberOfSides: 6)
