Alright, for this particular challenge, you're first asked to create a constant name and assign it your name as the value.

let name = "Patrick"

Then, you're to use string interpolation to create a second constant greeting that combines the literal string "Hi there, " with your name constant from before.

let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)."

The directions specifically remind you to add a period to the end of the string.

Hope that helps!
