how do you create a variable with two different things

how do you create the two parts of the variable, do I need to do treehouse= "tree" + "house" ?

1 Answer

Yes, I believe this should work for you:

treehouse = "Tree" + "house";

Keep in mind that the exercise wants the value of the variable to be "Treehouse" (so you must use an uppercase letter). Also, this is not really creating two parts of a variable; it's a concept called concatenation. The value stored will be a single element---the string "Treehouse".
