Swift Basics: Collections. Extra Credit Please Help?

The extra credit prompt is "Create an array of 10 songs where each song is a dictionary. The dictionary contains the following keys: title, artist and album."

I can't figure at all how to put dictionaries inside an array. Can anyone please help?

Hello Alex.

Reading your question I presume you know how to create the dictionaries right?

Technically you only need to separate the dictionaries with a comma and surround all the dictionaries with [] representing the array.

Something like this should do:

var dictionaryArray = [ ["ke1" : "value1", "key2" : "value2"], ["ke1" : "value1", "key2" : "value2"] ]
