12,885 PointsYou don't need to redefine first and lastname variables, these are inherited from the parent. You don't need to redefine the init method either, because there's nothing we need to change in the initialization of the class. all you need to do is override the fullName func.
I notice a lot of typing errors in your code like fullname instead of fullName.
It should be:
// Enter your code below
class Doctor: Person{
override func fullName() -> String {
return "Dr. \(lastName)"
}
}
let someDoctor = Doctor(firstName: "John", lastName: "Smith")
