I am having problems with part 4 on this code challenge.
full_name = "David Fry"
name_list = full_name.split()
greeting_list = "Hi, I'm".split() + name_list
greeting = " ".join(greeting_list)

18,249 PointsYou created a list called name_list
that looks like ['David', 'Fry']
. The challenge is expecting "Hi, I'm David". To accomplish this, access the first item in name_list
via an index. In this case, 'David' is the first item in name_list
, so you would access it via name_list[0]
.
greeting_list = "Hi, I'm".split() + name_list[0]

to greeting_list
. So your first and last name is present.
