You simply have your return type backwards, greeting should be first then language.
func greeting(person: String) -> (greeting: String, language: String) {
let language = "English"
let greeting = "Hello \(person)"
return (greeting,language)
}
var result = greeting("Tom")

26,676 PointsHi Jake,
The 3rd task is as follows:
Using the
println statement, print out the value of thelanguageelement from theresulttuple.
So what this is asking us to do is print the value for result.language which because we're using named tuples we can access simply via language whereas if we didn't name it we would have to access it via 1 instead.
You can read far more about this in another post I made a while back.
println(result.language)
Happy coding!
