102 Pointswhy is this incorrect?
you should include the ability to show the answer or create a walk through of the correct answer with the option for a second challenge. this would not only help the user understand how/why the syntax is correct but also cut down on these questions.
let language : String = "Swift"
println("Learning \ (language)")

102 PointsHi Ricardo, Thanks for the reply. I am now using the following: let language = "Swift" println("Learning \ (language)") and still not passing. I get the following the message: Bummer! You need to interpolate the value of the 'language' constant into the string you pass to 'println'.

let language = "Swift"
println("Learning \(language)")

2,286 PointsTake in mind that Swift is case sensitive which means that even the slightest mistake can cause an error in your code. For example if you upper case a letter which actually should be lower case then it would be mark as an error. What i mean by this is that when you write the keyword "var" but you upper case all of the letters like this "VAR" or even just one letter "Var" then it would be mark as an error. Another example would be like a extra space or mispelling a word etc.
