Courses Plus Student 1,453 Pointshi Christian Clarke, the thing is i am stuck if i write out the first question '''favorite_color = input ("what is your favorite color?")'''
but how do i answer the prompt? in the video the teacher inputs the the variable and prompt on text editor and the answers it in the console. In the coding challenge i have no console to repond to the prompt.

Courses Plus Student 1,453 PointsChristian Clarke if you are to go to the thread above this one i have tried it like this-
'''favorite_color = input("what is your favorite color?") purple print("the color", favorite_color, "is a great color!")'''
i also deleted the 2nd line and line 1 and 3 remained.

favorite_color = input("What is your favorite color? ")
This challenge isn't one where you're supposed to actually answer the the prompt it just wants to make sure you understand the mechanics of how the input method works if you were to actually use it.
