The code written bellow is perfectly compilable within the Xcode without display of any error but stated as not compilable in the code challenge, even-though no errors show up inside the Preview
struct Book {
let title: String
let author: String
let price: String?
let pubDate: String?
init?(dictionary: [String:String]) {
guard let title = dictionary["title"], let author = dictionary["author"] else {
return nil
}
self.title = title
self.author = author
self.price = dictionary["price"]
self.pubDate = dictionary["pubDate"]
}
}

iOS Development Techdegree Student 9,170 PointsHey Zhiren,
It seems that you can't name the parameter 'dictionary'. I replaced it by dict and it worked. I think they want us to name the parameter 'dict' but they forgot to mention that.
struct Book {
let title: String
let author: String
let price: String?
let pubDate: String?
init?(dict: [String:String]) {
guard let title = dict["title"], let author = dict["author"] else {
return nil
}
self.title = title
self.author = author
self.price = dict["price"]
self.pubDate = dict["pubDate"]
}
}
