Joe Ford
Courses Plus Student 1,341 PointsIssue with String Concatenation 2 of 2
I've tried two methods that compiled without issue in Playgrounds.
First:
let name = "Joe"
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)."
let finalGreeting = "\(greeting) How are you?"
Second:
let name = "Joe"
let finalGreeting = "How are you?"
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name). \(finalGreeting)"
Neither method worked for the code challenge.
// Enter your code below
let name = "Joe"
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)."
let finalGreeting = "\(greeting) How are you?"

Your problem is that you are still using string interpolation in finalGreeting but the challenge is asking for string concatenation.
Cheers

Courses Plus Student 1,341 PointsNevermind. I needed to read the instructions more carefully. I was using string interpolation and not concatenation.
