I am taking a swift class and this question came up. I don't know what i am doing wrong!! Please help.
In the editor you've been provided with a Tag type. Create a struct named Post with three stored properties: title of type String author of type String tag of type Tag
Create an instance of Post and assign it to a constant named firstPost.
struct Tag {
let name: String
}
struct Post {
let title: String
let author: String
let tag: Tag
}
let firstPost = Post

To create an instance of Post, you need to pass in values for the properties of Post. Remember, a class or structure is just a blueprint for your objects. They model what properties and methods the object will have. To create an instance, you need to provide it with specific values.
To create an instance of Post, you will have to satisfy the requirements of providing a value for its 3 properties.
- The first: a title, of type String
- The second: an author, of type String
- The third: a tag, of type Tag
let firstPost = Post(title: "Luke", author: "You", tag: Tag(name: "Anyone"))
Good Luck!
