The Quistion
Declare a constant named finalGreeting, and concatenate the value of greeting with the string literal " How are you?".
Example: "Hi there, Pasan. How are you?"
My Answer
let name = "Khaled" let greeting = "("Hi there,") (name)" let finalGreeting = "(greeting). ("How are you?")"
Note : I ran this code on playground and it works well !
// Enter your code below
let name = "Khaled"
let greeting = "\("Hi there,") \(name)"
let finalGreeting = "\(greeting). \("How are you?")"

Just change this constant this way
// Your code
let greeting = "\("Hi there,") \(name)"
// Change with this
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)"
Next let have a look at our task, "Declare a constant named finalGreeting, and concatenate the value of greeting with the string literal " How are you?"."
// 1. Declare constant (witch you have done well)
// 2. concatenate the value (Be careful here) greeting with the string literal " How are you?"."
// NOTE: to concatenate a variable/constant with the string literal you just use + sign
let finalGreeting = greeting + " How are you?"
So again, in the playground works well because there is not mistake as syntax but you didn't respect all the tasks for the challenge that's why
