188 PointsStuck again... can somebody help me seeing what I'm doing wrong in this challenge?
Hello!
Not sure what I'm doing wrong here and I got a bit stuck...
name = 'Giulia'
subject = 'Treehouse loves {}'
subject.format(name)

Treehouse TeacherI'm of the opinion that your code should work. However, the challenge is looking for you to do the string assignment to subject all on one line. See my code:
name = 'Giulia'
subject = "Treehouse loves {}".format(name)
Keep in mind that challenges are very picky!

188 Pointsthanks Jennifer! It's a bit confusing when you try them out in the workspace and they work there but not in the challenge...

Treehouse TeacherYup the devil is in the details. I've seen people fail challenges with fairly complicated code because they printed the result and didn't return it. I've fallen victim to it as well. Sometimes I believe this is what they want me to do, and I code it that way. Then I have to turn around and force myself to read it again and see what they ACTUALLY say (which generally turns out to be slightly different). You aren't alone here :)
