Python basic question poorly worded.

As best as I can remember when I first faced it:

Task 1 of 2*

I want to make the email subject one more time, but this time let's use the .format() method for strings. Go ahead and make your name variable again. Hey, all practice is good practice, right?

Simple enough here.

name = "John Smith"

Task 2 of 2*

OK, so now use .format() on the string "Treehouse loves {}" to put your name into the placeholder. Assign this to the variable subject again.

The tricky part here is the "assign this to the variable subject again". The context is missing here. Makes it hard to understand. But I ended up working it out as this.

name = "John Smith"
subject = "Treehouse loves {}".format(name)

It is the context problem. If they worded it with more internal consistency it might be a little easier to undrstand. Perhaps something like this.

Now create a variable named subject and assign it the string "Treehouse loves {}" using the .format() method to insert your name from the variable you created in the previous step.

See, stands consistent alone.

Anyhow, keep up the great work! It really is worth it, honestly. I am loving where treehouse has gotten me! :)

The first task is asking you to create a variable called 'name' again, exactly as you did in the previous challenge.

The second task is asking you to create a variable 'subject' and to use the format() to put your name into the subject line provided.

Setting name is correct.

For the subject, it should be as asked:

subject = "Treehouse loves {}"

and then to add the name, use format(name), not method().
