Courses Plus Student 1,663 PointsI have tested my code in playground it works but on the test it is failing
I did the code challenge in my playground and it is working with no errors. However when I put it into the code challenge area it is saying "Bummer! Your code could not be compiled"
struct Tag {
let name: String
}
struct Post {
let title: String
let author: String
let tag: Tag
init(title: String, author:String,name: String) {
self.title = title
self.author = author
self.tag = Tag(name: name)
}
func description() -> String {
return "\(title) by \(author). Filed under \(tag.name)"
}
}
let firstPost = Post(title:"Test", author: "Me", name: "Somebody")
let postDescription = firstPost.description()

Treehouse TeacherIn your firstPost declaration and creation of the instance of the Post object you forgot to create the tag that takes the name. See my code for clarification:
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: "Test", author: "Me", tag: Tag(name: "Somebody"))
let postDescription = firstPost.description()

Courses Plus Student 1,663 PointsThanks I didn't see that problem. The way to instantiate a struct or class is always going to cause me problems. Just not used to this kind of syntax
