What's wrong with my code?
let product = "firstValue * secondValue"
let firstValue = 2
let secondValue = 4
let output = "The product of (firstValue) times (secondValue) is (product)"

17,921 Points- You cannot calculate "Product" before defining and assigning values to "firstValue" and "secondValue".
- You should not use double quotes when calculating numbers
- You cannot include variables inside strings, must use concatenation
i think the corrections are as follows:
let firstValue = 2
let secondValue = 4
let product = firstValue * secondValue
let output = "The product of " + firstValue + " times " + secondValue + " is " product
hope this does it for ya
