I am not sure why this doesnt work here but works fine in Xcode Playground
enum Coin: Int {
case Penny = 1, Nickel = 5, Dime = 10, Quarter = 25
init(){
self = Quarter
}
func isGreater(currentValue: Coin, newValue: Coin) -> Bool {
return currentValue.rawValue > newValue.rawValue
}
}

enum Coin: Int {
case Penny = 1, Nickel = 5, Dime = 10, Quarter = 25
init(){
self = .Quarter
}
func isGreater(currentValue: Coin, newValue: Coin) -> Bool {
return currentValue.rawValue > newValue.rawValue
}
}

2,640 PointsThanks makes sense, but why would this works in Xcode Playgrounds?
