How to remove the whitespace in a string between two words

How to remove the whitespace in the return statement in the code I attached. I want iOSDevelopment to be printed instead of iOS Deveopment

structs.swift 
struct Tag {
    let name: String
}
struct Post {
    let title: String
    let author: String
    let tag: Tag

    func description() -> String {

        return "\(title) by \(author).Filed under \(tag.name)"
    }
}
let firstPost = Post(title: "iOS Development", author: "Apple", tag: Tag(name: "swift"))

Hi there, in Swift 3.0 you can use this method:

import Foundation

let string = "Hello World!"
let formattedString = string.replacingOccurrences(of: " ", with: "") // result: "HelloWorld!"

Thank you Konrad, I followed your suggestion, and it works fine with xCode. But, the import does not work with web editor available on Techdegree. It gives me the following error:

swift_lint.swift:18:19: error: value of type 'String' has no member 'replacingOccurrences' return "(title.replacingOccurrences(of: " ", with: "")) by (author).Filed under (tag.name)"

Also, what about swift 2.0 ?
