I am unable to solve this problem.

this code works perfectly in online compilers.

structs.swift 
struct Person {
    let firstName: String
    let lastName: String
     func getFullName()-> String
    {
        return ("\(firstName)" + " " + "\(lastName)");
    }
    let aPerson = Person(firstName: "ks", lastName: "krishnakanth")
    let fullName = aPerson.getFullName();
}

Hey ks krishnakanth,

The problem is you are creating the aPerson and fullName constants inside of your struct. You need to create them outside of that scope. I edited your code and pulled them out for you.

struct Person {
    let firstName: String
    let lastName: String
     func getFullName()-> String
    {
        return ("\(firstName)" + " " + "\(lastName)");
    }
}

let aPerson = Person(firstName: "ks", lastName: "krishnakanth")
let fullName = aPerson.getFullName();

Good Luck!
