Value of description does not match

Not sure what I am missing here. I am getting the proper results in xcode but being told the value of my description does not match.

structs.swift 
struct RGBColor {
    let red: Double
    let green: Double
    let blue: Double
    let alpha: Double

    let description: String

    // Add your code below
    init (red: Double, green: Double, blue: Double, alpha: Double) {
        self.red = red
        self.green = green
        self.blue = blue
        self.alpha = alpha
        self.description = ("red: \(red), green: \(green), blue: \(blue), alpha \(alpha)")
    }

}

Hey Daniel,

Try this:

struct RGBColor {
    let red: Double
    let green: Double
    let blue: Double
    let alpha: Double

    let description: String

    // Add your code below
    init (red: Double, green: Double, blue: Double, alpha: Double) {
        self.red = red
        self.green = green
        self.blue = blue
        self.alpha = alpha
        self.description = ("red: \(red), green: \(green), blue: \(blue), alpha: \(alpha)")  // you forgot the colon at alpha
    }

}

Good luck! :)
