While technically your code is correct in syntax, it does not follow the instructions for the task.
The instructions do not ask for a constant named interpolatedGreeting
to be created, so that needs to be deleted.
The challenge explicitly asks for only the name
and greeting
constants, and the greeting
should hold the string "Hi there, " (note the comma and space as well) with the name
variable interpolated in that string.
So, there should only be two lines of code, like so:
let name = "Jacob"
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)"
So, while your code was correct and will run in Xcode, you have to really pay attention to what the challenges are asking for. Any deviation, spelling errors, missing punctuation, etc. will usually end with a Bummer
.
Keep Coding! :)
