Stuck on this challenge.

Can anyone please tell me what's wrong in my code? Thank you!

structs.swift 
struct Tag {
    let name: String
}

struct Post {

let title: String
let author: String
let tag: Tag
}

let firstPost = Post (title: String, author: String, tag: Tag)

Hi Grigory,

I noticed that you are not calling the default initializer for the Tag struct.
Also, code challenge asks you to create an instance of Post and a true instance must be initialized so I am guessing they want you to add some dummy data. Certainly seemed to do the trick.

Here is what worked for me.

struct Tag {
    let name: String
}

struct Post {

    let title: String
    let author: String
    let tag: Tag
}

let firstPost = Post(title: "Hello", author: "Author name", tag: Tag(name: "random"))

I hope that helps,

Mike

PS: Thanks to the awesome resources on Team Treehouse, I launched my first app.

Thanks a lot, Michael!

I was pretty close to your solution in one of my variants, but missed one small thing... So stupid, spent a day on it...

It's funny, I downloaded your app a couple of days ago - you mentioned it in another thread here on Threehouse Community. Didn't have a chance to play with it yet. But will do, promise. We need more apps like yours and Swifty - you should know them.

Cheers, Grigory
