Declare a third NSString variable named 'favorite' and assign a concatenated string to it by appending the variable named 'color' to the variable named 'preference'. (Remember to use the method 'stringByAppendingString').

NSString *color = @"Purple";
NSString *preference = @"My favorite color is ";
NSString *favorite = [color stringByAppendingString:preference];

NSString *string1 = @"I am a string 1";
NSString *string2 = @"I am a string 2";
NSString *combindedStrings = [string1 stringByAppendingString:string2];
Kind Regards Holger

Holger Liesegang
50,595 PointsHi Trent, with your code the variable favorite equals "PurpleMy favorite color is ", so you might want to change the order of color and preference in [color stringByAppendingString:preference] to [preference stringByAppendingString:color].
