I've tried copy and pasting the answers. I've tried it myself. Not sure what's wrong here?
favorite_color = input("What is your favorite color? ")
print("The color", favorite_color, "is a great color!")

favorite_color = ("Your Favorite Color")
print("The color %s is a great color!"%favorite_color)

Courses Plus Student 2,054 Pointsfirst line : they are asking to set your favorite color in the variable favorite_color, they are not asking to ask the user his favorite color. So just set variable favorite_color and put you favorite color in a string second line : you need to join the string with the sign + instead of comma.
