In the editor you've been provided with a struct named Location that models a coordinate point using longitude and latit

In the editor you've been provided with a struct named Location that models a coordinate point using longitude and latitude values.

For this task we want to create a class named Business. The class contains two constant stored properties: name of type String and location of type Location.

In the initializer method pass in a name and an instance of Location to set up the instance of Business. Using this initializer, create an instance and assign it to a constant named someBusiness.

What's wrong with my code?

classes.swift
struct Location {
    let latitude: Double
    let longitude: Double

    init(latitude: Double, longitude: Double){
    self.latitude = latitude
    self.longitude = longitude
}
}

class Business {
let name: String
let location: Location

init(name: String, location: Double) {
self.name = name
self.location = location
}
}

let someBusiness = Business(name: "Chances", location: Location (latitude: 13.1, longitude: 31.3),

Hey,

It was just the type of the parameter 'location'. You declared as Double but you are trying to pass a Location actually.

struct Location {
    let latitude: Double
    let longitude: Double

    init(latitude: Double, longitude: Double){
    self.latitude = latitude
    self.longitude = longitude
}
}

class Business {
let name: String
let location: Location

init(name: String, location: Location) { // the type here should be Location not Double  =)
self.name = name
self.location = location
}
}

let someBusiness = Business(name: "Chances", location: Location(latitude: 13.1, longitude: 31.3))
