What am I doing wrong?

I followed everything from the video and still cant get it! It's been two days and I'm stumped. Could you please help?

months.swift 
let months = [1, 2, 3]

for month in months {
if month == 1
println("January")
} else if month == 2 {
println("February")
} else if month == 3 {
println("March")
} else {
println(month)
}

It looks like you've forgotten some braces:

if month == 1 { not if month == 1 and a final closing } after your last println(month)

let months = [1, 2, 3]

for month in months {
    if month == 1 {
        println("January")
    } else if month == 2 {
        println("February")
    } else if month == 3 {
        println("March")
    } else {
        println(month)
    }
}
