operators.swift 
var europeanCapitals: [String] = []
var asianCapitals: [String] = []
var otherCapitals: [String] = []

let world = [
  "BEL": "Brussels", 
  "LIE": "Vaduz", 
  "BGR": "Sofia", 
  "USA": "Washington D.C.", 
  "MEX": "Mexico City", 
  "BRA": "Brasilia", 
  "IND": "New Delhi", 
  "VNM": "Hanoi"]

for (key, value) in world

    switch key { case "BEL","LIE","BGR":europeanCapitals.append(value)

    case "IND","VNM": asianCapitals.append(value)

    default: otherCapitals.append(value)

    }

Hey Nigel I was looking at your code and you have it switching on the key and appending the value like you are supposed to. The classic programer joke is what the problem was happens to me to. When you were adding the switch statement the closing } was deleted. 

var europeanCapitals: [String] = []
var asianCapitals: [String] = []
var otherCapitals: [String] = []

let world = [
    "BEL": "Brussels",
    "LIE": "Vaduz",
    "BGR": "Sofia",
    "USA": "Washington D.C.",
    "MEX": "Mexico City",
    "BRA": "Brasilia",
    "IND": "New Delhi",
    "VNM": "Hanoi"]

for (key, value) in world {
    switch key {
    case "BEL","LIE","BGR": europeanCapitals.append(value)
    case "IND","VNM": asianCapitals.append(value)
    default: otherCapitals.append(value)

    }
}

you got the logic down thats what matters most !
