490 PointsSwift 2.0 Basics Working with operators challenge task 1 of 2 Keep getting caught up on this error
Question -For the first task, we're going to keep it pretty simple and check if we know how to use the remainder and equality operators. β¨In the editor below, you have two constants - value and divisor. Step 1: Using the remainder operator, compute the remainder given the value and a divisor. Assign this value to a constant named result. β¨Step 2: When value obtained using a remainder operator is 0, this means that the value is a perfect multiple of the divisor. Compare the value of result to 0 using the equality operator and assign the resulting value to a constant named isPerfectMultiple. β¨Submit your answer after you've completed both steps 1 and 2.
My code
let value = 200
let divisor = 5
let someOperation = 20 + 400 % 10 / 2 - 15
let anotherOperation = 52 * 27 % 200 / 2 + 5
// Task 1 -
let result = value % divisor
// Task 2 -
let isPerfectMultiple = 0
isPerfectMultiple == result
Error is keep getting-
The value assigned to isPerfectMultiple should be the result of a comparison operation
// Enter your code below
let value = 200
let divisor = 5
let someOperation = 20 + 400 % 10 / 2 - 15
let anotherOperation = 52 * 27 % 200 / 2 + 5
// Task 1 - Enter your code below
let result = value % divisor
// Task 2 - Enter your code below
let isPerfectMultiple = 0
isPerfectMultiple == result

47,913 PointsThe question is asking you to look at the value in result
and see if it is 0
, and then assign the result to isPerfectMultiple
. Since the question "Is result
equal to 0
?" has an answer of either yes or no, isPerfectMultiple
should contain a Bool
for the answer. Overall, the solution looks like this:
let isPerfectMultiple = result == 0 //Check if result is 0, and assign true or false to isPerfectMultiple

let someOperation = 20 + 400 % 10 / 2 - 15 let anotherOperation = 52 * 27 % 200 / 2 + 5
// Task 1 let result = value % divisor
// Task 2 let isPerfectMultiple = result == 0
