i type var smr : String = "Good Bye" no errors in code but get no result on the right side of Xcode where it should display "Good Bye"

Just to double check, have you ensured you have the standard editor open which is a grey panel that sits on the right hand side of the playground window? If you're unsure about how to open it you can click View > Standard Editor > Show Standard Editor as seen in the below image.
If you've checked that and it's all good try opening the Assistant Editor which you can do from the same View menu under Assistant Editor > Show Assistant Editor, if after all that you still don't see any values coming up try creating a new playground as in the past with earlier releases it had some minor issues.
Aside from that I can't think of any other reason why you wouldn't be seeing a value appear.
Let me know how you go.
