I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong... I've typed in the code in xcode and it works perfectly. I'm not sure what I missed

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

    return (greeting, language)
}



let result = greeting("Tom")

Here's what I had but I still can't get it to work for task 2:

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

    return (greeting, language)
}

var result = greeting("Tom")

How did you get it to work?

Here is the answer:

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

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