I know how to create the function and do the math problem with a modulo (%). I'm not understanding the external naming?
// Enter your code below
func getRemainder(a: Int, b: Int) -> Int {
return "value \(a)
}

the function should return the remainder of a divided by b which you can get by using the remainder/modulo operator (%). To give the parameters external names you have to write the external name in front of the parameter name.
Like so:
// Enter your code below
func getRemainder(value a: Int, divisor b: Int) -> Int {
return a % b
}
I hope that helps, good luck! :)
