I am not sure where the error in the code is.
class Name
attr_reader :first_name, :last_name
def initialize(first_name, last_name)
@first_name = first_name
@last_name = last_name
end
def full_name
@first_name + " " + @last_name
end
end

10,944 PointsIt looks like you may have changed the name of the class as when I load the challenge the code looks like this:
class Contact
attr_reader :first_name, :last_name
def initialize(first_name, last_name)
@first_name = first_name
@last_name = last_name
end
end
So the test is probably looking at the code with the original class name "Contact" . The method you have created to return the first name and last name is perfect and with this code below I pass the challenge.
class Contact
attr_reader :first_name, :last_name
def initialize(first_name, last_name)
@first_name = first_name
@last_name = last_name
end
def full_name
@first_name + " " + @last_name
end
end
