Even with the preceding example, we could dig even deeper and say "I need some water, then boil the water" or "type or brand of sugar".
Let's take a look at the following Swift code. This is a typical class you may see when writing a standard Swift app. Take a closer look at the makeBrew() function and how each step is coded so that the compiler knows...
