3,863 PointsTrouble creating an initializer method
Can't seem to get the last part of this code correct?
struct Location {
let latitude: Double
let longitude: Double
}
class Business {
let name: String
let location: Location
init(name: String, location: Location) {
self.name = name
self.location = location
}
let someBusiness = Business(name: "Corey", location: Location)
}

Your initializer method is perfect! The problem is you trying to create an instance of Business, inside the Business class. To fix this, move it outside of the curly braces. You also have to initialize Business with an instance of Location. You can't just write the type Location as you have it now.
struct Location {
let latitude: Double
let longitude: Double
}
class Business {
let name: String
let location: Location
init(name: String, location: Location) {
self.name = name
self.location = location
}
}
// Changed your code to add an instance of Location
let someBusiness = Business(name: "Corey", location: Location(latitude: 20.0, longitude: 30.0))
Let me know if you need more help! Good Luck!
