String Interprolation does not work

Question

In this challenge I was asked to concatenate name and greeting,

Here is my code:

let name = "Graham" let greeting = "Hi there"

let interpolatedName = "(name), (greeting)"

This code works in Xcode but not here

Thanks

strings.swift

// Enter your code below
let name = "Graham"
let greeting = "Hi there, "

let interpolatedName = "\(name), \(greeting)"

Hi Elizabeth,

That part of the challenge wants you to use concatenation, +, not interpolation.

let name = "Steve"
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)."
let finalGreeting = greeting + " How are you?"

Steve.

concatenation is needed here:

let name = "Ryan" let greeting = "Hi there, (name)." let finalGreeting = greeting + " How are you?"

I hope this helps... keep coding on!!
