swift 2.0 Functions, code challenge 24.0 degrees

QUESTION: In this task, all you have to do is call the function and pass in a value of 24.0 degrees. Assign the result of the function to a constant named fahrenheitTemp.

MY CODE: func temperatureInFahrenheit(temperature: Double) -> Double { return ((temperature * 9) / 5) + 32 }

let FahrenheitTemp = temperatureInFahrenheit(24.0)

There is a typo in your code.

You capitalized the first character of

let fahrenheitTemp

If you fix that it will accept your answer.

func temperatureInFahrenheit(temperature: Double) -> Double {
    let fahrenheit = (temperature * 9 / 5) + 32
    return fahrenheit
}

let fahrenheitTemp = temperatureInFahrenheit(24.0)

Your code works in the playground because Xcode is less strict. In the playground you can give variable names starting with a capital letter but that is not done by convention and they are trying to enforce best practices.

I hope that helps,

Mike

Code! Learn how to program with Swift

that's the answer

func temperatureInFahrenheit(temperature: Double) -> Double { let fahrenheit = (temperature * 9 / 5) + 32 return fahrenheit }

let fahrenheitTemp = temperatureInFahrenheit(temperature: 24.0)
