As an example, the final value of greeting could be "Hi there, Linda".

strings.swift

let name = "Robin"
let greeting = "Hi there"

Hi Robin , If you have noticed they asked to set the greeting constant to an interpolated string , and instead you've assigned a string literal to it. (Everything between " " , is a string literal). So instead it would be : 

let greeting = ("Hi There," \(name))
