Treehouse Guest Teacherstr is a built-in for the string class. Did you assign a value to it before you tried to do print(str)? If not, yes, it prints what you posted, which is the representation of the class.

3,313 PointsThanks that helped .
Ok , I re-tried that , I typed str(3) in the python shell , got '3' as result , and then when I typed help(str) I got help on class . Why did this work that way ? I mean, why I had to do this initialization ? I need to initialize every class each time before I use help ?

Treehouse Guest TeacherNope, you can just do
help(str)right away and get help on it.
