Format Not Right?

For some reason when I put in my code, it tells me to check my format, but I'm 100% that i got the right format for my constant output. Here's my code, what did I do wrong?

// Enter your code below let firstValue = 32 let secondValue = 12 let product = firstValue * secondValue let output = "(firstValue),(secondValue),(product)"

types.swift 
// Enter your code below
let firstValue = 32
let secondValue = 12
let product = firstValue * secondValue
let output = "\(firstValue),\(secondValue),\(product)"

There is nothing wrong in your code, its just that the challenge expects you to include the exact text for the string, like this.

// Enter your code below
let firstValue = 32
let secondValue = 12
let product = firstValue * secondValue
let output = "The product of \(firstValue) times \(secondValue) is \(product)"
