Not sure what value to put in the let statement
Challenge Task 1 of 3
Declare a function named temperatureInFahrenheit. The function should take a single input named temperature of type Double and has a return type of Double.
For now, to make the function pass, simply return the value of the temperature parameter from the function. In the next task, we'll add more code to the body.

// Enter your code below
func temperatureInFahrenheit(temperature: Double) {
let temperature =
return temperature
}

26,873 PointsYou should return the value of temperature, almost in the way you attempted. The "let =" does not belong there as that is used for storing values in constants; and here you should simply return the value. Also you need to specify the return type of the function.

return /* You can return some value here */
}
func wordInEnglish(word: String) -> String {
return word
}
