Inside struct you need to add a function with a return type of string and a return concatenated the firstName and lastName constants. Then you can just create a constant that instantiates the object Person. Inside the parenthesis you'll have to add the values for firstName and lastName and then create another constant where you instantiate the struct and run the function.

Something like this:

struct Person { let firstName: String let lastName: String

func getFullName() ->String{
    return "\(firstName) \(lastName)"

}

}

let aPerson = Person(firstName: "Tom", lastName: "Thomas")

let fullName = aPerson.getFullName()
