let name = "Bob" let greeting = "Hi there, (name) " let finalGreeting = greeting
let name = "Bob" let finalGreeting = "Hi there, (name) "
let name = "Bob" let greeting = "Hi there," + name
// Enter your code below
//let name = "Bob"
//let greeting = "Hi there, \(name) "
//let finalGreeting = greeting
//let name = "Bob"
//let finalGreeting = "Hi there, \(name) "
let name = "Bob"
let greeting = "Hi there," + name

4,260 PointsThe code you have commented out is correct, but might not be formatted exactly how they wanted.
greeting = "Hi there, \(name)"
Here greeting is interpolated (without space after name).
Also, finalGreeting should be a concatenation using greeting
finalGreeting = greeting + " How are you?"
notice the space before How so that it matches when the strings are added together.
Complete answer:
let name = "Todd"
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)"
let finalGreeting = greeting + " How are you?"
