673 PointsPlease help, I need help with the Tuples code challenge.
Currently our greeting function only returns a single value. Modify it to return both the greeting and the language as a tuple. Make sure to name each item in the tuple: greeting and language. We will print them out in the next task.
func greeting(person: String) -> String {
let language = "English"
let greeting = "Hello \(person)"
return greeting
}

5,958 PointsSorry for the late response. My original answer was incorrect. Here is the real answer:
First you need to make sure your function has two outputs, a greeting and a language. Both of these must be strings.
Then, you must return both the language and the greeting.
func greeting(person: String) -> (greeting: String, language: String) {
let language = "English"
let greeting = "Hello \(person)"
return (greeting, language)
}
var result = greeting("Tom")

return.language return.description
But make sure you name your tuples first before you return them or this will not work.
