class Name
attr_reader :first_name, :last_name
def initialize(first_name, last_name)
@first_name = first_name
@last_name = last_name
@full_name = first_name last_name
end
def full_name
@first_name + " " + " " + @last_name
end
end
It won't pass!
class Name
attr_reader :first_name, :last_name
def initialize(first_name, last_name)
@first_name = first_name
@last_name = last_name
end
end

Courses Plus Student 40,065 PointsHi Ellie,
Very close! You don't have to create double spaces (" " + " "). Basically we create first name and last name with a space only in between. Don't add anything else. :)
Example:
class Name
attr_reader :first_name, :last_name
def initialize(first_name, last_name)
@first_name = first_name
@last_name = last_name
end
def full_name
@first_name + " " + @last_name
end
end
