Treehouse Moderator 58,945 PointsThe flask Request object contains the attributes of the URL request. The args attribute is a dictionary containing arguments from the URL. The get() method is a built-in dictionary method that will “get” an item from a dictionary or return a default value (None if key not found). In this case, it avoids a KeyError if “name” argument not found.
Post back if you need more help. Good luck!!!
