Errors

Whenever I try to do a println command I will write it just like Amit has wrote it in the video instructions and I will get an error For example:

let modernProgrammingLanguage: String = "Swift"

println(“To build an iPhone app we need to learn) \ (modernProgrammingLanguage)”) ^ ^ ^ I get an error where the ^ is I am not sure why. it says Fix it insert “,”.

Hi Corbin White !

You're using “ (open-quotes) and ” (close-quotes) instead of " (straight quotes) - there's a big difference between them.

let modernProgrammingLanguage: String = "Swift"
println("To build an iPhone app we need to learn) \(modernProgrammingLanguage)")

will run just fine.

...oh and Welcome to Treehouse, Corbin!

Hey Holger,

Thank you so much! I would have never noticed that!
