Help please

Hi,

I think there's something deeper that I don't understand but here's my code.

Please help, thanks.

structs.swift 
struct Person {
    let firstName: String
    let lastName: String

    func fullName(Person: String) ->  String {
        let fullName: String = firstName + " " + lastName
        return fullName
    }
}

The issue is the Person parameter you have declared for the method. That parameter does not belong there, as the method does not require anything to be passed into it. And in fact you don't end up using it that parameter in the code you wrote either.

If you simply remove it like this:

struct Person {
    let firstName: String
    let lastName: String

    func fullName() ->  String {
        let fullName: String = firstName + " " + lastName
        return fullName
    }
}

Then your code will pass task 1.
