// Enter your code below let name = "Fatimah"

let greeting = "hello, (name)"

let finalGreeting = greeting + "how are you?"

strings.swift 
// Enter your code below

Everything is fine except for the fact that prepended the message "hello, " instead of "hi there, "

Code challenges are incredibly picky, sorry to say :/

"Hi there, Pasan. How are you?"

To get it exactly like they have it looks like you missed:

  1. Hi there, instead of hello
  2. A period after (name)
  3. A space before How
// Enter your code below
let name = "Fatimah"

let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)."

let finalGreeting = greeting + " How are you?"
