10,799 PointsPython Basics, string formatting, cant solve?
Only 20 mins into my learning curve and im stuck on one of the python basics tasks. The task goes:
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 =). You do not need to print() anything.
Im simply looking for the solution as im obviously doing something wrong here.
Note: Is it really not possible to just get the correct solution on the course itself?
name="Lucas"
subject=.format("Treehouse loves {}"(name))

"Treehouse loves {}".format(name)
