Why is this code NOT working??

func getTowerCoordinates(location: String) -> (Double, Double) {     switch location     {         case "Eiffel Tower": return (48.8582, 2.2945)         case "Great Pyramid": return (29.9792, 31.1344)         case "Sydney Opera House": return (33.8587, 151.2140)         default: return (0,0)     } }

Have you tried setting the value of the case to a variable then returning one variable after the switch statement? A lot of returns makes the code a little messy. This way you can see what the variable is at the end of your code for diagnosis?

I should work. I even simply copied and pasted your code into the challenge, and it worked for me. So, I'm not sure why it isn't working for you.

Thanks Adam! I pasted my code again, and it worked. Not sure what was happening before. Thanks for all your help.
