IPhone : location coordinates return nil in swift

on Saturday, April 18, 2015

Coordinates return nil, I have entered requestAlwaysAuthorization and requestWhenInUseAuthorization in the plist file, but yet nothing happens. Here is my code.


what is going in this code? I can't find where the error is. It's just returning nil for cordinates
