I'm trying to figure out what is wrong with this code?
let name = "Brian."
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)"
let finalGreeting = "greeting + "" How are you?"

let finalGreeting = "greeting + "" How are you?"
The variable greeting should not be surrounded by quotation marks.
let finalGreeting = greeting + " How are you?"

3,488 PointsI tried it without the quotes. I was using the quotes to create a space between the two pieces of text. It still didn't work.

Treehouse Moderator 145,860 PointsI just ran Marc's corrections and both tasks passed. Your code for task one is correct
And Marc's correction is correct for task 2
let finalGreeting = greeting + " How are you?"For task 2, make sure you are adding the line of code to the ones you've already entered... don't delete anything.
