Hi. I am currently following Apple's swift course. However, I get an error saying "Expected '}' at end of brace statement" and I don't really understand why ? Can someone explain why and eventually correct the code ? Thanks ! Capture d’écran 2022-07-26 à 21.51.12.png

var question2 = question

let lowerQuestion2 = question.lowercased()

"hello" == "Hello"





func responseTo(question: String) -> String {

    if question.hasPrefix("hello") {

        if lowerQuestion2.hasPrefix("hello") {

            return "Hello there"

        } else {

            return "That really depends"

    }

}

Even if I haven't found a solution to the error, the code itself was wrong. Here's the solution.

var question = "HELLO"

let lowerQuestion = question.lowercased()


func responseTo(question: String) -> String {

    if lowerQuestion.hasPrefix("hello") {

        return "Hello there"

        } else {

            return "That really depends"

    }

}

You have four left braces in your code and only three right braces. Each left brace needs a matching right brace.

Add a right brace after the second return statement.

func responseTo(question: String) -> String {

    if question.hasPrefix("hello") {

        if lowerQuestion2.hasPrefix("hello") {

            return "Hello there"

        } else {

            return "That really depends"
        }   // Add the brace here to close the else block.

    }  // End the outer if block

}  // End of func
