Your code is fine. The issue is that you have named the last constant stri, the task specifies that it has to be named output. If you rename it like this:

let output: String = "The product of \(firstValue) times \(secondValue) is \(product)"

Then you will be able to complete the challenge.

it's still not working. it's saying: Bummer! Your code could not be compiled. Please click on "Preview" to view the compiler errors.

and the errors are :swift_lint.swift:8:12: error: consecutive statements on a line must be separated by ';' let product Int = firstValue * secondValue ^ ; swift_lint.swift:8:5: error: type annotation missing in pattern let product Int = firstValue * secondValue ^ swift_lint.swift:8:17: error: cannot assign to immutable expression of type 'Int.Type' let product Int = firstValue * secondValue ~~~ ^
