I'm so frustrated!

I have completed this task once before, but now I can't get past it at all after looking for a refresher in hopes to better pass a later task I was stuck on! I'm so frustrated! How come I was able to pass it then, and suddenly I can't pass it at all? I'm only at the basic stages of this course and I'm stuck. I feel like I'd have no chance once the course gets much harder! I'm so angry!

printer.py 
def printer(name, number):
    print("{} how are you {}".format(name, number)

printer("Hi ", "count")
printer("Hi ", "count")
printer("Hi ", "count")

You need to multiply the string by the number that's passed in the function. No need to worry about format() yet unless you're not linking the right code challenge
