Please help me with a function in Swift.It shows 5 errors in Xcode. I have 3 days trying to figure it out.Plz

it shows 5 errors at this part of code:

func randomFact () -> String {
  let unsignedArrayCount  = UInt32(factsArray.count)
        func randomFact() -> String {
return factsArray[Int((arc4random_uniform(unsignedArrayCount))]
        }

1) Expected ',' separator
2)Expected expression in a list of expressions
3)Expected ')' in an expression list
4)Expected expression in a list of expressions
5)Expected ']' in an expression list

// This is the entire code

import Foundation

struct FactBook {
    let factsArray = [
        "Ckemi",
        "Ky eshte nje aplikacion i bere ne gjuhen programuese Swift.",
        "Gjuha programuese Swift eshte nje gjuhe moderne,fleksibel dhe e sigurt.",
        "Ajo u krijua nga kompania Apple ne vitin 2014 ",
        "Ky aplikacion ka si qellim te nxise dhe te promovoje kulturen e qyteteve te Shqiperise",
        "Ky projekt eshte konceptuar te vihet ne pune nga Bashkite dhe zonat e tyre perkatese"

    ]

    func randomFact () -> String {

        let unsignedArrayCount  = UInt32(factsArray.count)
        func randomFact() -> String {
return factsArray[Int((arc4random_uniform(unsignedArrayCount))]
        }


    }
}

Moderator Edited: Added markdown to the question so the code can more easily be read.

Your function doesn't look right, try retyping the block of code into one function instead of nesting a function within a function.
