I noticed that you looked at my answer to your previous post which was "How would I Call the greeting function and pass it the String Jerry". If you wanted to call the greeting function and pass it the string "Jerry", then you'd have to pass it to the function when you call it, like this:
greeting("Jerry") // passing in "Jerry"
If you wanted to call greeting without any parameters (which doesn't make sense), then you'd have to define a default value which you'll learn later on in the course.
Good luck! :)

Do you mind giving me the error you're getting. Is it the same one or different?
If the error is due to running this on playground, Apple has changed this as of Swift 2.0+. The alternative to this solution would be:
func greeting(person person: String) {
print("Hello \(person)")
}
greeting(person: "Jerry")
