476 PointsHow do I assign the value of greeting in an interpolated string?
In this task, we're going to declare two strings. First, declare a constant named name and assign to it a String containing your name.
Second, declare a constant named greeting. Set the value of greeting to an interpolated string that combines "Hi there, " with the string stored in the name constant.
As an example, the final value of greeting could be "Hi there, Linda".
// Enter your code below
let name = "Emma"
let greeting = "Hi there, \ (name)."
let finalGreeting = greeting + "How are you?"
