554 PointsHelp with Tuple question.
I just don't know which way the system wants me to design the tuple. I have written code for two successful versions in xcode, but the online compiler just wont accept anything.

func greeting(person: String) -> String {
let language = "English"
let greeting = "Hello \(person)"
return greeting
}
you dont need to change the language and greeting constants. keep them the way they are.
the task states Currently our greeting function only returns a single value. Modify it to return both the greeting and the language as a tuple. Make sure to name each item in the tuple: greeting and language. We will print them out in the next task.
we need to modify the return type and the return value. your return type is almost correct, however you forgot to name the members of the tuple. then you can just return (greeting, language) at the end:
func greeting(person: String) -> (greeting: String, language: String) {
let language = "English"
let greeting = "Hello \(person)"
return (greeting, language)
}
