11,389 PointsYou do not need the parentheses for the product. In your output constant, you want to print "The product of 2 times 4 is 8", by replacing the 2, 4, 8 with the firstValue, secondValue, and product constants. Which should look like this:
let output = "The product of \(firstValue) times \(secondValue) is \(product)"
