It says I have the right value to Celsius, but it seems to me like I used exactly what it told me to. What is wrong here

I don't understand what is wrong with my code. I have no syntactical errors, but it says that I have not given celsius the right value even though I used the conversion that it gave me in the prompt.

Temperature.swift 
class Temperature {
    var celsius: Float = 0.0
    var fahrenheit: Float {
      get{
          return (celsius * 1.8) + 32.0
      }
      set {
          celsius = (fahrenheit - 32) / 1.8
      }
   }    
}

You must put newValue instead fahrenheit in setter like this

class Temperature {
    var celsius: Float = 0.0
    var fahrenheit: Float {
      get{
          return (celsius * 1.8) + 32.0
      }
      set {
          celsius = (newValue - 32) / 1.8
      }
   }    
}
