Does my code work?

NSString *firstName = @"Sabath"; NSString *lastName = @"Rodriguez";

float classAverage = 70;
float finalAverage = 30;
int currentGradeLevel = 11;

if (currentGradeLevel >= 12) {
    NSLog(@"Dear %@, congradulations! You have graduated! Don't forget to visit us!", firstName);
}

if ((finalAverage < classAverage) && currentGradeLevel < 12) {
    NSLog(@"Dear %@, we look forward to seeing you at summer school, starting on July 1st!", firstName);
}
else if ((finalAverage <= classAverage) && currentGradeLevel < 12) {
    currentGradeLevel++;
    NSLog(@"dear %@, congradulations on a great year! We'll see you on july 1st, for the start of %ith grade!", firstName, currentGradeLevel);
}

I think your code structure is fundamentally wrong, and I don’t mean to discourage you. I suggest you go over the swift basics course again, as it will help you a ton. Some of your code is mixed with python, so you might want co clear out your basics before you continue.

let firstName = “Sabath”
let lastName = “Rodriguez”
var classAverage: Float = 70.0
var finalAverage: Float = 30.0
var currentGradeLevel: Int = 11

if currentGradeLevel >= 12 {
    print(“Dear \(firstName), congratulations! You’ve graduated! Don’t forget to visit us!”)
} else if (finalAverage < classAverage) && (currentGradeLevel < 12) {
    print(“Dear \(firstName), we look forward to seeing you at summer school, starting on July 1st”)
} else {
    currentGradeLevel += 1
    print(“Dear \(firstName), congratulations on a great year! We look forward to seeing you on July 1st, for the start of \(currentGradeLevel)th grade!”)
}

this is objective-c not swift, they're fundamentally different. I know swift but thanks.

Sorry man. I’m new to iOS and eager to help. Sorry to waste your time.
