Not sure how to set {get} and {set} for this challenge

This code works in Xcode, but the challenge is telling me I'm not creating the name and setting it to type "String"?

protocols.swift 
protocol UserType {
    var name: String {get}
    var age: Int {set get}
}

This does work in Xcode - but try formatting it like this:

protocol UserType {
  var name: String { get }
  var age: Int { get set }
}

Let me know if it works.

Thank you! I guess it just needed some spaces between the braces.
