I've tried all the possible solutions that came to mind, but I'm still unsure where I might be making a mistake.

using_input.py
favorite_color=input ('purple')
purple=input ('The color purple is a great color!')

Hey SandraLee Rowe ! :wave:

So for the first part of the challenge it's asking us to prompt the user "What is your favorite color? " and save their response to a favorite_color variable.

favorite_color = input("What is your favorite color? ")

For the second part of the challenge, it needs to be dynamic so that no matter what color the user inputs, it will be added into the string. It also mentions we need to print the message so we don't need another variable here. We'll need to close the strings and use commas to separate the values like in the previous videos.

print("The color ", favorite_color, "is a great color!")

I hope this makes sense! :smiley:
