initializer is a special instance method that sets up our CLASS???? ready for use

Given that the description of this video states "Structs in Swift get an automatic initializer method that helps us create an instance of the STRUCT for use", I imagine Pasan just said the wrong word by mistake, but it would be good to get confirmation from him.
