Question

It is asking to cocatenate the greeting string with the second string literal but I cant think of any other way.

strings.swift

// Enter your code below

let name = "Alejandro."

let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)."

let finalGreeting = "\(greeting) How are you?"

Hey Alejandro Chanocua,

You're just confused between concatenation and interpolation. When you concatenate two strings you join them together with the addition operator +.

// Enter your code below

let name = "Alejandro."

let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)."

let finalGreeting = greeting + " How are you?"

Your previous code does produce the desired result. The challenge just wants you to solve it this specific way.

Good Luck!

Hello, just use the + symbol. Let me know how that goes! :)

example:

1string = "some random string" 2string= "some random string 2" bothstringstogether= 1string+2string
