I'm not sure what to do. I'm pretty sure this is the right answer... I've been stuck for awhile

challenge #2

tuples.swift 
func greeting(person: String) -> (language: String, greeting: String) {
    let language = "English"
    let greeting = "Hello \(person)"
    var newGreeting = (language, greeting)
    return newGreeting
}

var result = greeting("Tom")

I was able to copy and paste your code into the challenge question and it worked for me. Can you provide more information as to what you are having issues with?

Brady,

Here is what I used:

func greeting(person: String) -> (greeting: String, language: String) {
    let language = "English"
    let greeting = "Hello \(person)"
    return(greeting, language)
}
var result = greeting("Tom")

Thanks, I fixed it. It would only accept my answer after I changed the order to (greeting, language) instead of (language, greeting). Very annoying.... I wasted 45 mins trying to figure out what I did wrong. It seems like a bug because return order shouldn't matter for this exercise. Ugh.
