task 2 of challenge

what exactly am I doing wrong for returning the values for task 2?

// Enter your code below
var results: [Int] = []

for multiplier in 1...10 {
  var multiplier = "\(multiplier) * \(6)"
  results += [multiplier]
  }

Additionally, could someone please explain how this code will also passes the first task??

// Enter your code below
var results: [Int] = []

for multiplier in 1...10 {
  var multiplier = ("\(results) * \(6)")
  }

this is as far as I got var results: [Int] = [] for multiplier in 1...10 { print("(multiplier * 6)")}

don't know how to append the value of the results....

Thanks for the feedback! Your method also works! However, I ended up solving the issue with my own code; the issue was due to syntax error, it was misinterpreting multiplier as a string instead of an int, so I was running into issues appending that into results... Here is the working code:

// Enter your code below
var results: [Int] = []

for multiplier in 1...10 {
  var multiplier: Int = multiplier * 6
  results.append(multiplier)
  }

and in retrospect--after viewing other forum posts--refactored and clean simplified code with less complexity would be:

// Enter your code below
var results: [Int] = []

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

var results: [Int] = [] let multiplier = 6 for number in 1...10 { results.append(multiplier * number)}
