Treehouse Moderator 68,454 PointsHey Kennedy Malonga, let’s break it down:
-
Call the
hello_student()
function...
The function hello_student()
expects a str
argument. So the call to the function would look like hello_student(“Kennedy”)
- and save the return value to a variable called
hello
.
Since the function returns a string, it may be assigned to a variable using hello = hello_student(“Kennedy”)
Post back if you need more help. Good luck!!!
