9,366 PointsWhat am i doing wrong?
I'm stuck ! can anyone help me ? This is what i have to do: Create a variable named result and assign it the tuple returned from function greeting. (Note: pass the string "Tom" to the greeting function.) This is what goes wrong: Bummer! You need assign the return value of the 'greeting' function to 'result'.
func greeting(person: String) -> (greeting: String, language: String) {
let language = "English"
let greeting = "Hello \(person)"
return (greeting, language)
var result = greeting(greeting: "Tom")
}

You have the right code pretty much just in the wrong spot, simply put your result
variable after the closing brace for your greeting function.
The other problem is you're using a named parameter which greeting doesn't have so you can omit greeting:
.
func greeting(person: String) -> (greeting: String, language: String) {
let language = "English"
let greeting = "Hello \(person)"
return (greeting, language)
}
var result = greeting("Tom")
Happy coding!
