Create a variable named name with your name in it. This is the task I have tried anything i can think of here and its not allowing me to advance, I'll type below what i have tried.

Name = input("What's your name?")

name = vince

namevince= ("what's your name?")

name.py 
name = input("What's your name?")
print(name)

the task doesnt want you to use input(), it simply wants you to create a variable called name with the value of your name in it:

name = "Vince"
