450 PointsString formatting, why isn't this working
I think my code is correct, but I don't why it isn't working
name = "Sud"
subject = "Treehouse Loves {}".format("Sud")
I've even tried to do this.
.format(name)

9,160 PointsThere you go
name = "Sud"
subject = ("Treehouse loves {0}").format(name)
With the Formatter the {0} becomses the name variable (parameter). 0 means it gets the first varaible
Another example
name1 = "Sud"
name2 = "Ben"
name3 = "Chris"
subject = ("Treehouse loves {0}, {1} and {2}").format(name1, name2, name3)
this makes the string to "Treehouse loves Sud, Ben and Chris
