Learn the syntax, data types, and operations essential for programming in Scala

Become a Scala Developer

In this module, we will learn Scala from the ground up. This module aims to teach us how to write basic programs, assuming we have no prior knowledge of the language. We will start with a brief introduction to Scala to understand its functionality and applications. We will then move discuss the key features and functions of the language (data types, functions, classes, etc.) in detail. In the end, we will have all the basic knowledge of how to program in Scala.

## Task

In this challenge, you were provided two variables and you had to embed them in a string. 

## Solution

The first thing you had to figure out, was that the `s` string interpolator can be used to embed variables into strings.

```
print(s.....)
```

Next, you needed to write the required string in a print statement. To embed `name` and `age` in the string you had to insert a `$` followed by the variable name at the location where you wanted to embed the variables.

```
print(s"$name is $age years old.")
```

You can find the complete solution below:

>You were required to write the code on **line 4**.
