2,565 PointsString Interpolation challenge - need help
I've tried this multiple times, and I can't figure out the error messages I'm getting. Here's my code:
let name = "Jeff"
let greeting = "(Hi there), (name)"

194 PointsI am stuck with task 2, I got the first one right. When I use interpolated strings....i was given an error to use concatenation and when I used concatenation ....I get an error as use interpolated strings. While the output on Xcode storyboard is correct and it does not give me any error.

2,565 PointsActually, I ended up getting it.
The "Hi there" was throwing me off. I kept trying to put it in brackets.
The code should have been.
let greeting = "Hi there, (name)."
