At which part for the challenge are you stuck?
i will help you with the first two
task 1
create a route called multiply and a view called multiply that returns the product of 5 *5
@app.route('/multiply')
def multiply():
return str(5 * 5)
Task 2
Is to provide arguments to the route with a default value for each argument
@app.route('/multiply')
@app.route('/multiply/<int:num1>/<int:num2>')
def multiply(num1=5,num2=5):
