4,389 PointsWhy couldn't I use the = operator
I was able to pass the this challenge with the code
var results: [Int] = []
for n in 1...100 {
if (n % 7 < 1) && (n % 2 != 0) {
results.append(n)
}
}
But I had originally tried the following code
var results: [Int] = []
for n in 1...100 {
if (n % 7 = 0) && (n % 2 =1) {
results.append(n)
}
}
The second one would not compile. The error seemed to be saying that could not use the =. I don't understand why that would not compile.
var results: [Int] = []
for n in 1...100 {
// Enter your code below
if (n % 7 < 1) && (n % 2 != 0) {
results.append(n)
}
// End code
}

14,575 PointsHello,
In swift, there are is an operator for assignment, and another one for comparison.
"==" is for comparison, "=" is for assignment.
so in that case, you would have to use it this way.
var results: [Int] = []
for n in 1...100 {
if (n % 7 == 0) && (n % 2 == 1) {
results.append(n)
}
}
Hope this helps
