976 PointsIt seems like I've declared both parameters and the external parameters right here - what's missing?
Wondering what I'm missing here with my current setup for the function.
func getRemainder(a value: Int, b divisor: Int) -> Int {
return value % divisor
}

Your code is correct in syntax, except you have your local and external parameters backwards.
func getRemainder(value a: Int, divisor b: Int) -> Int {
return a % b
}
You want a and b to be local so it's easier to code in the function, but you want value and divisor to be external, so when the function is called, it is easy to know what 'values' to enter.
Hope that makes sense. Keep coding! :)
