Having trouble with this challenge.

I seem to be doing something wrong here. Can someone assist me?

strings.swift 
// Enter your code below
let name = "Scott"
let statement = "Hi there"
let finalGreeting = "How are you?"

let greeting = "\(statement), \(name). \(finalGreeting)"

The challenge wants the greeting constant to use string interpolation whereas the finalGreeting constant should use string concatenation.

Hope that helps.

let name = "Scott"
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)."
let finalGreeting = greeting + " How are you?"
