I do not understand why my answer isn't accepted

I get the error: " Bummer! Make sure you're using string interpolation to construct the correct string for the description property" even though i have used string interpolation

structs.swift 
struct RGBColor {
  let red: Double
  let green: Double
  let blue: Double
  let alpha: Double

  let description: String

  // Add your code below

  init (red: Double, green: Double, blue: Double, alpha: Double){
      self.red = red
      self.green = green
      self.blue = blue
      self.alpha = alpha

      self.description = "red: /(red), green: /(green), blue: /(blue), alpha: /(alpha)"  
  }

}

You have the correct answer but you're using a forward slash, for your string interpolation, instead of a backslash.

self.description = "red: \(red), green: \(green), blue: \(blue), alpha: \(alpha)"

You dont need self.description, right? You can just have description =
