So on this challenge, i had to make a todo list, append two items to it, remove an item from it and assign that removed item into a constant. Why would i do this in the first place? what is the purpose of taking that removed item and assigning it to a constant?
var todo = ["Learn Swift", "Build App", "Deploy App"]
todo.append ("Debug App")
todo.append ("Fix Bugs")
todo.removeAtIndex(2)
let item = "Deploy App"
