//Bummer! Make sure you're assigning the results of calling the getFullName() method to a constant named aPerson
Did I miss something or is this the treehouse compiler being fickle?
//Bummer! Make sure you're assigning the results of calling the getFullName() method to a constant named aPerson
struct Person {
let firstName: String
let lastName: String
func getFullName() -> String {
let fullname = firstName + " " + lastName
return fullname
}
}
let aPerson = Person(firstName: "Nick", lastName: "Me")
aPerson.getFullName()

Mostly it's the code checker just being finicky.
I'm actually surprised the checker allowed your Task one to pass. While your code is syntactically correct, it wasn't what the checker wanted for Task one.
The challenge doesn't want you to assign the fullName constant inside of the function. Instead that should just return the full name. return firstName + " " + lastName.
The constant fullName gets declared as part of the function call at the end.
What you need for this challenge is this:
struct Person {
let firstName: String
let lastName: String
func getFullName() -> String {
return firstName + " " + lastName
}
}
let aPerson = Person(firstName: "Nick", lastName: "Me")
let fullName = aPerson.getFullName()
Hope that helps
