There are two issues:

  1. The instructions specify that you have to assign the Person instance to a constant called aPerson. You have named the constant kuw.

  2. You are meant to assign the result of the fullName method to a constant called myFullName. You have not assigned it to any constant.

If you fix those two issues like this:

struct Person {
    let firstName: String
    let lastName: String

    func fullName() -> String {
        let bc = firstName + " " + lastName
        return bc
    }
}

let aPerson = Person(firstName: "Mohammed", lastName: "Otaibi") // Changed kuw to aPerson
let myFullName = aPerson.fullName() // Assigned fullName result to myFullName constant

Then your code will pass the challenge.
