iOS Object-Oriented Swift Complex Data Structures Adding Instance Methods

Instance methods challenge is not clearing despite putting in the method to return full name. What am I missing?

I've created a method within the structure to return the full name. Can't seem to pass the challenge. Can anyone tell me what's wrong with this method? It seems to work fine on the playground.

structs.swift
struct Person {
    let firstName: String
    let lastName: String

    func fullName(firstName: String, lastName: String) -> String {
      return "\(firstName) \(lastName)"
    }
}

Hi there, the fullName function should take NO argument.

Declare a method named fullName() that returns a string containing the person’s full name.

struct Person {
    let firstName: String
    let lastName: String

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