511 PointsIt did not work. The question was.... Modify the println statement within the greeting function to use the variable person. For example if you pass a person named "Tom to the function then it should display: Hello Tom.

2,535 PointsThis is what the code should look like: func greeting(person: String) { println("Hello /(person)") }. But, the forward slash needs to be a backslash. For some reason it won't let me type a backslash.
