Sample Solution:

Swift Code:

func close_10(_ a: Int, _ b: Int) -> Int {
    if abs(10 - b) > abs(10 - a) 
    {
        return a
    }
    else if abs(10 - b) < abs(10 - a) 
    {
        return b
    } 
    else 
    {
        return 0
    }
}
print(close_10(8, 13))
print(close_10(12, 7))
print(close_10(14, 6))

Sample Output:

8
12
0
