string interpolation

In this task we're going to declare two strings. First, declare a constant named name and assign to it a String containing your name.

Second, declare a constant named greeting. Set the value of greeting to an interpolated string that combines "Hi there, " with the string stored in the name constant.

I tried the string interpolation as explained in the video but its gives an error. what am i doing wrong?

strings.swift 
// Enter your code below
let name = "Nagaratna"
let greeting = "hi there"
let interpolatedGreeting = "\(greeting) \(name)"

You want your interpolated string to be assigned to greeting

let name = "Nagaratna"
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)"
