What is an error?

I don't know what is an error

structs.swift 
struct Tag {
    let name: String
}

struct Post {
    let title: String
    let author: String
    let tag: Tag
    init(title: String, author: String, tag: String){
        self.title = title
        self.author = author
        self.tag = Tag(name: tag)
    }
    func description() -> String {
        return "\(title) by \(author). Filed under \(tag.name)"
    }
}

let firstPost = Post(title: "iOS Development", author: "Apple", tag: "swift")
let postDescription = firstPost.description()

Your code is perfectly functional. The quiz compiler just doesn't like it when your init method takes in a String instead of a Tag for the tag property. Your code should work the way it is, but the quiz compiler doesn't like it. You just need to change your init method to take in a Tag instead of a String:

    init(title: String, author: String, tag: Tag){
        self.title = title
        self.author = author
        self.tag = tag
    }

After you do this, don't forget to change the instantiation of firstPost so it takes in a Tag rather than a String:

let firstPost = Post(title: "iOS Development", author: "Apple", tag: Tag(name: "swift"))

I hope this helps!
