My result looks the exact same as what is being asked but it keeps saying I am getting it wrong.

It keeps telling me to make sure the string is interpolated...but I think it is... can someone check my work?

strings.swift 
// Enter your code below
let name = "Keith"
let greeting = "\("Hi there"), \(name)."

Hello :

Perhaps you should try something like this

// Enter your code below
let name = "Keith"
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)."

All you had to do was to delete the first interpolation. "("Hi there")" is not valid syntax, since you are trying to put a string inside an interpolation with-in a string, if that makes sense..

Good luck
