Hi Yelmi,

The solution here needs you to use string interpolation to include two variables inside the output string. You can include a variable value in a string by adding a hash, then putting the varaible name inside curly braces #{var}.

So, to get the output string correct, you need to create a method called to_s and return the string like this:

  def to_s
    return "Name: #{name}, Balance: #{balance}"
  end

I hope that helps.

Steve.
