var shoppingListArray = ["toothpaste", "bread", "eggs"] that is the code that I entered, what am I doing wrong? Thanks

The error doesn't give any details but says to look at the preview but the preview doesn't show anything, it's just blank.

data_collections.swift 
var shoppingListArray = ["toothpaste", "bread", "eggs"]

I think you forgot the semi colon at the end of the bracket.

Heather Woods, Semi colons are actually not required in swift :)

Your var name does not match the requirements for the challenge. Try this instead...

var shoppingList = ["toothpaste", "bread", "eggs"]
