28,558 PointsChallenges are very picky about names and strings, you usually have to name things and format the strings to look exactly the way the challenge requests. Even the tiniest of differences will often mark the code as wrong, even if it technically runs and works just fine.
The specific issues in your case is that you have named the variable greetings
rather than greeting
which is the name the task specified, and you are missing a space after the comma within the string. If you fix those issues like this:
let name = "Naveed"
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)"
Then your code will pass the first task.
