8,227 PointsYou've got the first part done correctly. The finalGreeting gets a little mixed up, but you're close. Remember that the \( ) operator is used to take the value of a variable or constant and insert it into a string. As you have it now, you are surrounding a string with that operator, which doesn't make sense. greeting is the actual constant that you want added to a string. So what change would you need to make to your code to make that happen?
I wanna give you a chance to fix it before giving you the answer. It's the best way to learn! Hope that helps.
