I've tried the challenge on constants at least 50 times and for some reason I just cant figure out what i'm doing wrong.

I've tried the challenge on constants at least 50 times and for some reason I just cant figure out what i'm doing wrong. Any little things to look out for that i'm probably missing?

constants.swift 
let modernProgrammingLanguage = "Swift"

It looks like it might be failing because your variable is named "modernProgrammingLanguage" and not "language"

I agree, the question is asking for a constant named language to have a value of "Swift".

So, 

let language = "Swift"

That should work for you.
