In the editor, I have provided a class named Vehicle.
Your task is to create a subclass of Vehicle, named Car, that adds an additional stored property numberOfSeats of type Int with a default value of 4.
Once you've implemented the Car class, create an instance and assign it to a constant named someCar.
It says that my code can't be compiled but when I view Preview there are no compiler errors.
class Vehicle {
var numberOfDoors: Int
var numberOfWheels: Int
init(withDoors doors: Int, andWheels wheels: Int) {
self.numberOfDoors = doors
self.numberOfWheels = wheels
}
}
// Enter your code below
class car: Vehicle{
var numberOfSeats: Int = 4
}
let someCar = car(withDoors: 5, andWheels: 5)

, but the one you made is named car
(be sure to pay attention to capitalization! It matters in Swift). If you fix that, I think you'll be good
