**[SOLVED]** Stuck on overwriting methods...

Having problem overwriting fullName method...

objects.swift 
class Person {
  let firstName: String
  let lastName: String 

  init(firstName: String, lastName: String) {
    self.firstName = firstName
    self.lastName = lastName
  }

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

// Enter your code below
class Doctor: Person {

  override func fullName() -> String {
    return "Dr. \(lastName)"
  }
}
let someDoctor = Doctor(firstName: "Dawry", lastName: "Pichardo")
someDoctor.fullname()

I solved it...just a simple typo. I ended with:

someDoctor.fullname()

when all I had to do was implement camelCase like this:

someDoctor.fullName()
