Anyone see what i have done wrong? I get output in xcode but nothing in the editor

Seems to work in xcode but not the editor, it says to make sure i use concatenation to get the output??

strings.swift 
// Enter your code below
let name = "Robert Bowden"
let greeting = "Hi There, \(name)"
let finalGreeting = "\(greeting), How are you?"

In the final one you need to do concatenation not interpolation :)

let finalGreeting =  greeting + " How are you?"

Cheers!
