327 PointsHow do I complete the Code Challenge: Correct errors on Learning the Basics of Python.
Ok so I need help for this Code Challenge, and I simply can't get it correct. Here is a screen shot of it. Thank you for helping.
print("Hello")
print(name)
print("Let's do some math!")
print(5 + "a")
print("Thanks for playing along!')

second, you cannot add a string and a number, that's why 5 + 'a' will not work, you can fix this by changing 5 from a number into a string by adding quotation marks around it, so you'll get '5' + 'a'
lastly, the last print statement says "Thanks for playing along'
it starts with a double quote " and ends with a single quote ', this will not work since you need to use the same quote on a single string, you need to change one of those quotation marks so that it will match the other
That should be it
