Hi Heaven,

Your code will output "Hi therename"

There are two problems here:

  1. You need to include a space in your string so name has some breathing room
  2. You're adding the literal string "name" rather than the variable name which holds a string

This should be easy for you to fix - let me know if you have trouble!

Cheers :beers:
