407 PointsCan't solve interpolated greeting
let name = "David" let greeting = "Hi there" let interpolatedGreeting = "(greeting), (name)"
This is working on Xcode but not on the quiz question. I just copied from Xcode and pasted it on the quiz and it gives me an error.
// Enter your code below
let name = "David"
let greeting = "Hi there"
let interpolatedGreeting = "\(greeting), \(name)"

While the code is technically correct, it is not what the challenge asked for. Challenges are very specific, and the instructions need to be followed exactly as they are written.
So, first, the instructions did not ask for a constant named interpolatedGreeting, so that needs to be deleted. To complete this Task, there should only be 2 lines of code. The name constant and the greeting constant.
It is in the greeting constant that you are to set the value
to an interpolated string that combines "Hi there, " with the string stored in the name constant.
So, you are on the right track, you just need to fix up the code to match what the Task is asking for.
You are also missing the comma after "Hi there" ... without the comma, the task will fail. (Again, Challenges are very picky).
Keep Coding! :)
