Swift Enums and Structs

Question

Create a variable named travel and assign it an instance of the Expense struct with the following values for each stored property: Description: "Flight to Cupertino" and Amount: 500.00.
struct Expense {
    var description: String
    var amount: Double = 0.00       
   init(description :  String) {
    self.description = description
}
var travel = Expense(description: "Flight to Cupertino")
travel.amount = 500.00
}
Help Please!
```struct.swift
struct Expense {
    var description: String
    var amount: Double = 0.00   
   init(description :  String) {
    self.description = description
}
var travel = Expense(description: "Flight to Cupertino")
travel.amount = 500.00
}
```

Hey Tony Winchester,
This challenge wants you to setup your structure using two stored properties, one named description and one named amount. These properties are not assigned any default values.
You then need to create an instance of the expense struct and assign it to a variable named travel. Since we are using a struct, we do not need to create our own initializer. We can use the memberwise initializer that is automatically provided to us when using a struct.
```Swift
struct Expense {
    var description: String
    var amount: Double
}
var travel = Expense(description: "Flight to Cupertino", amount: 500.00)
```
Good Luck!
