Python shell won't identify the number as a number, only as the position.

Snapshot below. Watching the Python Decorator workshop by Kenneth Love and our results are the same when using a nested(inner) function to do something for us via a call from the first(outer) function. Just my result gives me the position that the number is places rather than '5' for example. snapshot below with the shell log. Thanks!
