output is not functioning in Treehouse, but is functioning in Xcode.

I'm having trouble finding where the code is going wrong for Treehouse to accept the answer.

types.swift 
let firstValue: Double = 12
let secondValue: Double = 56
let product: Double = firstValue * secondValue
let output: String = "The product of \(firstValue) times \(secondValue) is \(product)"

Hi Jeremy, You're not supposed to specify Double as the data type, it's supposed to be Int.

let firstValue: Int = 8
let secondValue: Int = 9
let product: Int = firstValue * secondValue
let output: String = "The product of \(firstValue) times \(secondValue) is \(product)"
