Not understanding what I am doing wrong with Task 1 using Interpolation.

// Enter your code below let name = "Bindi"

let interpolatedGreeting = "(Hi there,)"

let greeting = "(interpolatedGreeting) (name)"

strings.swift 
// Enter your code below
let name = "Bindi"

let interpolatedGreeting = "\(Hi there,)"

let greeting = "\(interpolatedGreeting)" "\(name)"

Hello bindipatel you're almost there! Your syntax is a little off and the instructions weren't followed exactly right. The challenge only asks for us to create two constants. name & greeting. The final value of greeting should be an interpolated string of "Hi there" and the name constant. Keep up the practice and you'll have it in no time!

let name = "Alphonso"
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)"
