The constant should be language = Swift

The println statement then should reference "Learning" and the constant language.

Hiya,

The solution to this is below. You are given the variable language and need to print it out as part of a longer string so it prints out "Learning Swift".

Using string interpolation, you can add the Swift bit on by referencing the language variable. A backslash followed by the variable name in brackets does this for you:

let language = "Swift"
println("Learning \(language)")

I hope that helps.

Steve.
