Question about chapter 18 first ios and swiftUI app

[ionisme]

@State private var game: Game = Game()

what is the Game before the = sign needed?

[szymczyk]

In your example you don’t need to specify the type for game because you call Game() to assign its value. You could declare game as the following:

@State private var game = Game()

While you don’t have to specify the data type for game, specifying the type for variables makes it very clear what the data type is for each variable.
