Courses Plus Student 902 PointsConfusion as to what exactly this exercise is looking for
Hi, I think Iām confused as to what exactly this exercise is looking for. Do they want me to actually run the function?
# Example:
# values = [{"name": "Michelangelo", "food": "PIZZA"}, {"name": "Garfield", "food": "lasagna"}]
# string_factory(values)
# ["Hi, I'm Michelangelo and I love to eat PIZZA!", "Hi, I'm Garfield and I love to eat lasagna!"]
template = "Hi, I'm {name} and I love to eat {food}!"
def string_factory(name = None, food = None):
if name and food:
return("Hi, I'm {} and I love to eat {}!".format(name, food))
else:
return("Ew what is wrong with you.")

I also marked your answer in the thread you linked as best, as it's what fixed that OP's problem (and is also one of the general best answers I've seen on this site in a long time)

In the future, please refrain from posting profanity in your questions, comments, answers, and any associated code. I've removed the offending phrasing from the last line of the code above
