You want to use string interpolation to include the variable in the string:
let name = "Steve"
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)"
Make sense?
Steve.

let finalGreeting = greeting + "How are you?" // no leading space before " How ...
Steve.

let name = "Ian"
Task 1b: Declare a constant named "greeting"
let greeting =
Task 1c: Set the value of greeting to an interpolated string that combines "Hi there, " and with the string stored in the name constant.
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)."
Interpolated is the key word there, not concatenated. So you don't need the "+". You'll do that in the next task.

let name = "akin"
let greeting = "Hi there ,\(name)."
