# suggestedAge

The range of ages, measured in years, for which you deem a context’s content suitable.

## Declaration

```swift
var suggestedAge: NSRange { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion Use this property to optionally suggest an age range for a context’s content. This guides teachers as they look for content for their students, although teachers are free to ignore your suggestion. If you provide a range, use integer ages measured in years as bounds. For example, you could consider a game as suitable for students from ages 4 to 6: gameContext.suggestedAge = NSRange(4...6) // For ages 4 to 6. To indicate no lower bound, provide a value of 0. To indicate no upper bound, provide the largest possible value. Use both at the same time to indicate a context’s suitability for all ages: youthContext.suggestedAge = NSRange(0...10) // Up to and including age 10. adultContext.suggestedAge = NSRange(18...Int.max - 1) // Ages 18 and over. allAgesContext.suggestedAge = NSRange(0...Int.max - 1) // For everyone. New contexts that you create have the “all ages” setting by default. note: Because NSRange defines its upper bound as one more than the last value contained in the range, use Int.max - 1 to indicate the unbounded case and prevent the upper bound from overflowing.
