I'm having difficulty completing Tuple Challenge 2 of 3. Do you have the answers?

Hi Paul

You're so close! With tuples as two objects are stored within them you need to explicit say which of the two you want to assign to your new variable. What you have currently:

func greeting(person: String) -> (language: String, greeting: String) {
    let language = "English"
    let greeting = "Hello \(person)"

    return (language, greeting)
}
var result = greeting("Tom")

Is very close but you're missing one key part which is where you are setting the value of your new variable "greeting". What will happen with the code above is result will equal the results of both objects within your tuple so would look something like: (English, Hello Tom)

As it will return the language object along with the greeting. To cut a long story short the remedy for this is:

func greeting(person: String) -> (language: String, greeting: String) {
    let language = "English"
    let greeting = "Hello \(person)"

    return (language, greeting)
}
var result = greeting("Tom").greeting

Note the dot notation and then the explicit deceleration of 'greeting' after passing "Tom" in to your greeting function on the last line, with tuples this is how you get out of them the object that you want rather than all of the objects at once.

Hope this helps, if not just let me know.

Got it to work but didn't need the .greeting at the end of the result variable

func greeting(person: String) -> (language: String, greeting: String) {
    let language = "English"
    let greeting = "Hello \(person)"

    return (greeting, language)
}
var result = greeting("Tom")

Hello,

I tried all of these and none of them work.

Any ideas?
