request.form

when i call request.form in pdb, in the immutable multidict the key value pair shows up but the value is preceded by a 'u'. For eg: ['name', u'nik'] This was not there in the video but it is showing up like this on my pc. Have i made an error? the code is identical to that in the lesson.
