iOS Swift Basics (retired) Types Printing Results

println doesn't work

When I get in my playground, I get an error that println has been changed to print. Is this a change in versions?

Hey Katie,

Yes, println was deprecated with the Swift 2.0 release (along with more than a few changes). Swift also became Open Source with the 2.2 release in March, so expect many more changes to come in Swift 3.0. Swift is a very new language, so will probably be evolving for a while.

So, if you're using Xcode 7, you will want to switch to the Swift 2 Track as there are a few changes that won't be recognized in Xcode.

Keep Coding! :)
