842 PointsUnresolved Identifier
I am getting an error titled " use of an unresolved identifier". Can someone please explain what an identifier is in Swift and what it means when it is unresolved. I know I could find the correct code in the forum somewhere but would really like to understand the jargon so it makes my learning deeper and easier. Rob

An unresolved identifier is a word that Swift doesn't understand. So, if you try to use a variable that you haven't declared or if you mis-type a method name, Swift won't know what it is looking at and flag it as an unresolved identifier.
Hope that helps
Steve.
