your code could not be compiled... what's wrong here?

The constant declaration is right, what am I missing ?

enums.swift 
enum Compass: Int {
    case North = 1
    case South = 2
    case East = 3
    case West = 4
}

//let direction = Compass(rawValue: 2)
//let direction = Compass.South.rawValue
 let direction = Compass(rawValue: 2)

Hi Rea Rahhal,

Nothing really wrong with the code per se.
The task however requires all lower case enum members i.e south not South

Nice work by the way ... you nailed it!! (just change the capitisation on the enum members) :dizzy:
