Stuck on loops challenge

Everything i try turns out to be wrong and i can't think of anything else.

The one error that shows up is "swift_lint.swift:5:1: error: expected expression in container literal for multiplier in 1...10 {print("(multiplier) times 6 is equal to (multiplier*6)"}"

Can anyone tell me what's wrong here?

var results: (Int) = [ for multiplier in 1...10 {print("(multiplier) times 6 equals to (multiplier*6)")]

Hi Maksymilian,

For this challenge you are only required to append the results of each multiplication into the results array.

You are not required to PRINT the full table as you were trying to do.

What you need to do is the following.

First you create the for-in loop, and iterate over the 1...10 range (just like you did)

Then since you are ONLY required to append the results, you only create an append function, multiplying each "multiplier" times 6. 

for multiplier in 1...10 {
    results.append(multiplier * 6)

}

As well I would advise you to correct your syntax for String Interpolation:

The syntax is /(valueGoesHere)
