Python Python Basics (2015) Python Data Types String Formatting

How do I do this ?

OK, now use .format() on the string "Treehouse loves {}" to put your name into the placeholder. Assign this to the variable subject (so start with subject =).

What is the correct code ?

strings.py
name = "Alwi"
subject = "Treehouse loves {}"
print(subject.format(name))

Your code works. I think the validation is looking for:

subject = "Treehouse loves {}".format(name)

Nope does not work .
