iOS Development Techdegree Student 1,590 PointsWhy is the line let greeting = "Hi there, /(name)" not correct as an answer for this question?
The code should be correct for this question but the code check fails???
// Enter your code below
let name = "Jack"
let greeting = "Hi there, /(name)"

They mean different things to Swift :)
Try this:
// Enter your code below
let name = "Jack"
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)"
Good luck! ~alex

Treehouse TeacherHi there! You're so close here. You've typed /(name)
instead of \(name)
. Note the direction of the slash. Make this correction, and the challenge should pass.
Good luck!
