1,266 PointsConcatenation question 2: My Answer looks correct, but is not acceptable.
I have the following. It looks fine, works in Xcode, but I cannot get an acceptable response from the test. Please help.
let name = "Pasan" let greeting = "Hi there, (name)" let finalGreeting = "(greeting). How are you?"
// Enter your code below
let name = "Pasan"
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)"
let finalGreeting = "\(greeting). How are you?"

I don't have a subscription at the moment so I'm unable to view this challenge, however, I believe this task wants you to use String Concatenation and not String Interpolation.
let value = "This is the value we will extract"
let interpolationExample = "\(value) from the variable into a String."
let concatenationExample = "Here we combine two string literals" + " using concatenation."
You really have to pay attention to every line of code, every word, and every character when programming. Which is why I like the specificness of this task :D
What you did is perfectly valid Swift code! You just didn't solve it how Treehouse was asking you to.
Good Luck!
