Why am I still getting an error? How am I interpreting the question wrong?
class Temperature {
var celsius: Float = 0.0
var fahrenheit: Float {
get {
return (celsius * 1.8) + 32.0
}
set {
celsius = ((fahrenheit - 32)/1.8)
}
}
}

27,237 PointsSetters have a variable within them called newValue. Replace fahrenheit with newValue. You can also drop one set of parenthesis.
class Temperature {
var celsius: Float = 0.0
var fahrenheit: Float {
get {
return (celsius * 1.8) + 32.0
}
set {
celsius = (newValue - 32) / 1.8
}
}
}
