Think the error is in the celcius sum... as its not compiling. Or have i misunderstood the question?
class Temperature {
var celsius: Float = 0.0
var fahrenheit: Float {
return (celcius * 1.8 ) + 32))
}
}

But yeh, celsius is misspelled.
Thats the nature of coding, you have to be super careful about tiny spelling mistakes, even a missing " or something, or a missing ) somewhere will utterly destroy your code and it can take hours to figure out you left off a / in the string of a URL request.

return ((celsius * 1.8) + 32)
Hope this helps!
