Your name has to be a string.

name = "Ivana"

#one problem need to be fixed
name = Ivana   #This line of code is wrong
# varible name is equal to another varible Ivana.
#i know u want to set varible equal to a word lvana

#if so, u need to put the word into the " " sign
#therefore, the correct code is name = "Ivana"

name= "lvana"   we call this "lavan" with " "sign is string because the whole word is fixed or being stringed together into one thing.

#one more thing, i know this one doesn't have problem
>>>print("Let/'s do some math!")  #if u run this code,it will give u this in below
Let/'s do some math!    #see there is a / sign between the word "let" and 's .
#u don't need the / sign between the word "let" and 's.
#good night



#correct code:

print("Hello")
name = "Ivana"
print(name)

print("Let/'s do some math!")    #you can keep the / sign or remove it.
print(5 + 5)

print("Thanks for playing along!")
