What should I do?

I don't know what should I do...

structs.swift
struct RGBColor {
    let red: Double
    let green: Double
    let blue: Double
    let alpha: Double


    // Add your code below

    init(red: Double, green: Double, blue: Double, alpha: Double) {
    self.red = red
    self.green = green
    self.blue = blue
    self.alpha = alpha
    }
    let description: String = "red: \(red), green: \(green), blue: \(blue), alpha: \(alpha)"

}

Hey Kagan Dikmen,

You need to add the constant stored property, description, back into your RGBColor struct. You then initialize it inside of your init method, similar to the way you've written it now. However, it would be good practice to call self.description and you don't need to explicitly define it as a String. This will be done when you add the property to your struct. Take a look at my code:

struct RGBColor {
    let red: Double
    let green: Double
    let blue: Double
    let alpha: Double
    let description: String 


    // Add your code below

    init(red: Double, green: Double, blue: Double, alpha: Double) {
    self.red = red
    self.green = green
    self.blue = blue
    self.alpha = alpha
    self.description: = "red: \(red), green: \(green), blue: \(blue), alpha: \(alpha)"
    }
}

Good Luck!

Thank you so much! I got it.
