Hi Daniel,

I feel you have misread the instructions. The instructions say nothing about creating a variable called interpolatedGreeting. It does ask you to create a variable greeting that has a string ("Hi there,") and the interpolated variable name. So, the correct and complete code for this challenge will only have 2 lines and 2 variables.

While your code is correct in syntax and will produce the desired result, instructions for challenges need to be followed exactly or the challenge will fail.

Keep Coding! :) :dizzy:
