Can someone explain to me why it's not letting me pass?
Also any extra Code wisdom as I continue on this journey would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
struct Person {
let firstName: String
let lastName: String
func fullName() -> String {
return "\(firstName), \(lastName)"
}
}
let myName = Person(firstName:"Mickey", lastName:"Mouse")
let results = myName.fullName()

All you need to do to pass this challenge is REMOVE the comma in the fullName return statement string.
return "\(firstName) \(lastName)" // This line, take out the comma in your code above
As for sucking at code, don't sweat it. Programming is frustrating for most of us. I've lost count of how many times I've been stymied by the tiniest of typos. You'll improve. It just takes time and lots of practice. You'll start seeing the patterns and the little things to look for as you gain experience (just don't quit early, there will be payoff down the road). The problems and hiccups don't go away, but the difference is that, with experience, you'll immediately know what types of solutions to consider when troubleshooting your code.
Good luck.
