iOS Object-Oriented Swift 2.0 Complex Data Structures Adding Instance Methods

Object-Oriented Swift 2.0 adding instance to method (task 2)

I am still struggling through learning swift. I thought I was getting it but I am back to asking questions. How am I to solve this question. I thought I had the answer but I was wrong. So many times have I been wrong.

"Let's use the struct to create an instance of Person and assign it to a constant named aPerson. Assign any values you want to the first and last name properties.

Once you have an instance, call the instance method and assign the full name to a constant named fullName."

structs.swift
struct Person {
    let firstName: String
    let lastName: String

   func getFullName() -> String {
   return "\(firstName) \(lastName)"
    }
  let aPerson = Person(firstName: "George", lastName: "Jefferson")
    results append.(aPerson)  
}

It just takes a lot of repetition to get the concepts down. I know how frustrating it can be. Just keep at it and it really does get easier when you look back. You are so very close on this challenge too. A very worthy attempt.

struct Person {
    let firstName: String
    let lastName: String

    func getFullName() -> String {
      return "\(firstName) \(lastName)"
    }
}


let aPerson = Person(firstName: "Alex", lastName: "Smith")
let fullName = aPerson.getFullName()

How do this in swift 3.0?
