Object-Oriented Swift Quiz, I don't know how to return a string?

I know how to make the method return an array. But I don't know how to make it return a string. If someone could show me how to do it that would be amazing!

Thank you.

structs.swift 
// Person Object 
struct Person {
  let firstName: String
  let lastName: String
  // getFullName() Method
  func getFullName() -> [Person] {

    var results: [Person] = []
    var i = true

      while i == true {
        firstName + " " + lastName

        i = false

          let personName = Person(firstName: "Maxwell", lastName: "Bracey")
            results.append(personName)
      }
    return results
  }
}

struct Person {
    let firstName: String
    let lastName: String


func getFullName() -> String {
    let fullName = "\(firstName) \(lastName)"
    return fullName
}
}

let me = Person(firstName: "Eddie", lastName: "Parks")

me.getFullName()

This isn't the "Answer" but I think this will lead you down the right path.
