Xcode producing different result than workspace

On Xcode, I'm getting the result "Doc Found". However, the workspace is saying only "Found" is being printed. Am I missing something?

Thanks!

search.swift
func search(#name: String) -> String? {
    let names = ["Doc","Grumpy","Happy","Sleepy","Bashful","Sneezy","Dopey"]
    for n in names {
        if n == name {
            return n
        }
    }
    return nil
}

if let result = search(name: "Doc") {
    println("\(result) Found")
    }

Hi Michael,

This challenge only wants you to print the string Found if the IF statement succeeds so you only need the following.

println("Found")

Happy coding!
