I need a little help with this one

I think I have the majority of this figured out although anytime I try to recheck my work to move on it says it is wrong and that I need to make sure and name a constant myFullName and call the method in the struct or something like that and I am so confused!!! I know the last line of code is wrong, that was just a another failed attempt at wracking my brain for the answer. Please help!!! please please!!

structs.swift 
struct Person {
    let firstName: String
    let lastName: String

  func getFullName() -> String {
    return "\(firstName) \(lastName)"
  }
}

let aPerson = Person(firstName: "Heather", lastName: "Wolfram")
let fullName = aPerson.getFullName()
let myFullName = fullName

You are very close. You just have to change the method name to "fullName()" and the "fullName" constant should be called "myFullName". Then delete the last line of code 

struct Person {
    let firstName: String
    let lastName: String

    func fullName() -> String {
      return "\(firstName) \(lastName)"
    }
}

let aPerson = Person(firstName: "", lastName: "")
let myFullName = aPerson.fullName()
