777 PointsI tried my code in Xcode and it works. let concatenatedGreeting = greeting + " " + name + " " + finalGreeting
What´s wrong?
// Enter your code below
let name = "Mick."
let greeting = "Hi there,"
let finalGreeting = "How are you?"
let interpolatedgreeting = "\(greeting) \(name)"
let concatenatedGreeting = greeting + " " + name + " " + finalGreeting

While your code is correct syntactically, it is not what the challenge has asked for. Challenges are very specific and very picky. You have assigned values to constants that are not what the challenge wants, and you have two extra ones that were also not asked for.
The first part of the challenge wants you to create only two variables (both constants). One called name with your name and another called greeting with an interpolated string.
So, the first part of the challenge will only have
let name = "Mick."
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)"
Now the second part of the challenge wants you to concatenate the value of greeting with the string literal " How are you?" into a constant called finalGreeting.
let name = "Mick."
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)"
let finalGreeting = greeting + " How are you?"
Hope that helps. Remember, you have to pay very close attention to what the challenge is asking for, as they are very picky. :)
