Binary operator '<' cannot be applied to two 'Int?' operands

Question

Good evening lovely community,
this is my first post, please have mercy, if I do something wrong.
I know there are some similar questions here, but I doesn\'t under

Answer 1

Well, by using guard statement you can check if both values are not nil, and converting it to Int typ

    guard let value_one = Int(goalPlayerOne), let value_two = Int(goalPlayerTwo) else {
        print("Some value is nil")
        return
    }

so you can safely compare two values.

    if value_one < value_two {
       //Do something
    }
