2,226 PointsTrying to assign a tuple to a variable and not sure how to do it!
The Challenge is this: Create a variable named result and assign it the tuple returned from function greeting. (Note: pass the string "Tom" to the greeting function.) and my code is attached. Having trouble knowing what the variable 'result' would look like and how i pass the string to Tom
func greeting(person: String) -> (language: String,greeting: String, result: String) {
let language = "English"
let greeting = "Hello \(person)"
var result = "Tom"
return (language, greeting, result)
}

What the challenge is asking is for you to create a variable and assign it whatever the function will return to you.
I will modify your code just a bit, and then the rest you can do it. It will make sense once you see it.
func greeting(person: String) -> (language: String,greeting: String) {
let language = "English"
let greeting = "Hello \(person)"
return (language, greeting)
}
// Call the function and declare the variable here.
If you can't solve it or if there is anything that you do not understand, please let me know, and I can go into more details. So far you were doing great.
Good luck
