Let's use the struct to create an instance of Person and assign it to a constant named aPerson. Assign any values you wa

struct Person {
    let firstName: String
    let lastName: String
    func getFullName() -> String {
    return "\(firstName) \(lastName)"
}
}
let aPerson = Person(firstName: "A", secondName: "B") // <- change secondName to lastName
let fullName = aPerson.getFullName
structs.swift 
struct Person {
    let firstName: String
    let lastName: String
}

Hi Justice,

When you've created your struct instance, you have used secondName not lastName. Everything else looks finebut you need to add opening an closing brackets to your method call:

let aPerson = Person(firstName: "A", lastName: "B") // <- change secondName to lastName
let fullName = aPerson.getFullName()  // <- brackets here

Let me know how you get on.

Steve.
