This practice example gives me an error though I solved the problem well.

Please fix it...

structs.swift 
struct Person {
    let firstName: String
    let lastName: String

    func getFullName() -> (String) {
        return firstName+" "+lastName
    }

}


let aPerson = Person(firstName: "Mario", lastName: "Kratafila")

aPerson.getFullName()

let fullName = aPerson.getFullName()

Hey Mario,

Try this code: I reformatted it and kept only what is essential for the solution to pass.

struct Person {
    let firstName: String
    let lastName: String

    func getFullName() -> String {
        return "\(firstName) \(lastName)"
    }

}

let aPerson = Person(firstName: "Mario", lastName: "Kratafila")

let fullName = aPerson.getFullName()

Hey Mario Kratafila,

Your code passes fine for me. Try restarting your web browser.

Good Luck!

Hi Steven,

Still gives me the error: The value being assigned to fullName must be the result of calling the instance method getFullName()

I restarted the Safari browser.
