let firstValue = 1 let secondValue = 3 let product = firstValue * secondValue let output = "(The product of) (firstValue) (times) (secondValue) (product)."
// Enter your code below
let firstValue = 1
let secondValue = 3
let product = firstValue * secondValue

Treehouse TeacherThe output string is incorrect. Remember we only put slashes and parentheses around our variable names where we want them to print out the value of that variable. For instance "The product of" is not a variable name in our code. Here's how you should write it:
let output = "The product of \(firstValue) times \(secondValue) is \(product)."
