What did I do wrong?

So.. I watched the solution video and then literally typed character by character into my Xcode (which ran) and then copied from the second line to the second to last line and I am am getting an error message. What did I do wrong is the the challenge questions compiler a little off?

Thanks!

fizzBuzz.swift 
func fizzBuzz(n: Int) -> String {
  // Enter your code between the two comment markers
  if( i % 3 == 0) && (i % 5 == 0){
print("FizzBuzz")
    } else if ( i % 3 == 0) {
        print("Fizz")
    } else if (i % 5 == 0) {
        print("Buzz")
    } else {
        print(i)
    }

  // End code
  return "\(n)"
}

func fizzBuzz(n: Int) -> String {
    // Enter your code between the two comment markers
    var s: String = " "

    if( n % 3 == 0) && (n % 5 == 0) {
        s =  "FizzBuzz"
    } else if ( n % 3 == 0) {
        s = "Fizz"
    } else if (n % 5 == 0) {
        s = ("Buzz")
    }
    // End code
    return "\(s)"
}

The challenge asked you to return a string. In your code you are returning the number you provided as a parameter, (n : Int), formatted as a string. Your function should return a string, however that string should be based upon whether the number you provide (n : Int) is divisible by 3 and 5 returning "FIzzBuzz", divisible by just 3 returning "Fizz" or divisible by just 5 returning "Buzz".

Edit the return statement

return "\(n)"

and change it to

return "\(s)"
