Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Student 849 Pointsplease help with the second part of the code challenge on basics of swift
I am on the second part of the code challenge at the beginning of swift basics and I can not figure out what im doing wrong. Example: "Hi there, Pasan. How are you?"
let name = "Ashleigh"
let interpolatedGreeting = "Hi there"
let finalGreeting = "How are you?"
let greeting = "\interpolatedGreeting), \(name), \(finalGreeting)" //wrong code- it says to make sure the value you are assigning is greeting to an interpolated string.
I am confused

How are you?". Once you fix that along with the issue in my original answer, your code passes the challenge just fine for me. Great job!

47,913 PointsI'm not sure specifically which challenge you're referring to, so it'd be helpful if you could link it, but the only major issue I see with your code right now is that you're missing the opening paren (() before interpolatedGreeting in your string. As your code stands right now, your code will crash, because it thinks that \i is meant to be an escape sequence (like \n or \()), but \i is not one of the valid sequences. If you're having trouble past there, it's probably just punctuation
