Xcode Playground struct, weird results... __lldb_expr_1.Point

When I create an instance of a struct I am getting something different than in the video. Where Pasan creates an instance of Point his Xcode shows "Point" on the side. When I create an instance of Point I am getting 'lldb_expr_1.Point'. Seems to be accomplishing the same thing, but then when I go to create an instance of fullName in the next exercise I am getting something similar, 'lldb_expr_1.Person'. Anyone know what is going on here?

I'm getting the same thing, however it looks like where you have __lldb_expr_1.Point, I have __lldb_expr_88.Point.

Again, it doesn't seem to be affecting anything but I'm curious as to what it might be. Perhaps it's got something to do with the current version of Xcode?

It´s not an error, it´s the Low Level Debugger and how the Playground prints out your struct. Because Playground does not allow a custom module name it use's __lldb_expr

Mine is acting up the same way.

My Xcode is acting the same way.

Does anybody know how to change this so that it doesn't show the "__lldb_expr_1" prefix?

I thought is was some kind of display setting but can't seem to change/fix it.
