first step;

add an instance method with the name "fullName()" that returns a string

so that would be

func fullName() -> String {
{

and next step:

this method should take the first and last names and return the result with a space in between

to return the string that is being asked you will have to do something like

return thing1 + " " + thing2

What you need to do is make the function that returns the firstName and lastname properties, such as...

```func fullName() -> String { return firstName + "" + lastName }
