Whats wrong with my code

Rather than showing you exactly how I did this - let's figure out why your code isn't working first. You did perfect until we got to the 6th line of your code.

arrayOfInts.removeAtIndex(7)
let discardedValue = arrayOfInts

There is nothing wrong with the first line from this snippet. This will remove the item at index 7. The next line though you are setting the entire array of numbers to the value discardedValue - you're also selecting the wrong index. What you should have is this:

let discardedValue = arrayOfInts.removeAtIndex(5)

The directions tell you to store the item removed at the index you specify into a constant named 'discardedValue'. You failed to do this - which is why it failed.

Let me know if you have any questions.

I did it like this

// Enter your code below
var arrayOfInts = [1,2,3,4,5,6]
arrayOfInts.append(7)
arrayOfInts = arrayOfInts + [8]
let value = arrayOfInts[4]
let discardedValue = arrayOfInts.removeAtIndex(5)

Another way you could potentially do this, is to add two arrays together. More code heavy, but its another way of completing the task if you were interested.

// Enter your code below
var arrayOfInts = [1,2,3,4,5,6]
arrayOfInts.append(7)
var newInt = [8]
var newArrayOfInts = arrayOfInts + newInt
let value = newArrayOfInts[4]
let discardedValue = newArrayOfInts.removeAtIndex(5)
