how do you apply a value to a constant? for an interpolated string

my error says i need to apply a value to a constant - not sure how.

strings.swift 
// Enter your code below
let name = "Sno"
let greeting = "Hi,there"

let interpolated +"\(Sno) \(greeting)"

Hi matthew Rowe,

You were very close. To interpolate the strings and assign them to a constant, you need to use the constants' names i.e name and greeting. Here is an example, look at it and tweak your code accordingly

let name = "Rowe"
let greeting = ", Hola!"

let interpolated  = "\(name) \(greeting)"
