Seems like there's nothing to change, but I can't continue this way.

change this:
func greeting(person: String) {
println("Hello \(person)")
}
to this:
func greeting(#person: String) {
println("Hello \(person)")
}
the challenge wants you to name the parameter "person" to name it you just have to put the hashtag before it as I demonstrated above
Hope it helps!

15,743 PointsThe exercise may want you to indicate that person is also to be used as an external parameter name for a function parameter, but since your local name of person is appropriate to use to make the code more readable you prefix the name with the hashtag symbol (#). This tells Swift to use the name as both the local parameter name and the external parameter name.
func greeting(#person: String){ println("Hello (person)") }
Hope this helps.
