Hi Frank,

I was confused about this task as well. Instructions on this code challenge were not really helpful but I found a solution.

Instructions don't say but you should create a new variable with the string equalling "Hi there". Then you should be using interpolation. Take a look below and this should solve your problem. 

let name = "Linda"
let hello = "Hi there"
let greeting = "\(hello), \(name)."
