nil is not compatible with expected argument type NSDataReadingOptions

In the "Fetching Data" video, "nil" is used as the value for the "options" argument. However, when I input nil, I received an error " nil is not compatible with expected argument type NSDataReadingOptions

I do have an option for NilLiteralConvertible. What is this and should I use this instead?

Please reference the weatherData constant.

    let baseURL = NSURL(string: "https://api.forecast.io/forecast/\(forecastAPIKey)/")
    let forecastURL = NSURL(string: "37.8267,-122.423", relativeToURL: baseURL)

    let weatherData = NSData(contentsOfURL: forecastURL!, options: nil)
