Graeme,

This is what they want for the exercise in question.

The greeting is the interpolated string that includes the string literal "Hi there" plus the interpolated constant "name"

// Enter your code below

let name = "Graeme"

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

I'll start off by saying nice looking code. the problem in this challenge is that they dont want the "hi there" set as a variable.

try this 

let name = "Graeme"

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

that should work just fine.
