I wondered that because there's no "var" in Python. So assigning name would simply be like this:
name = "Anand"
And that's all this task asks for (no values, no printing). However, for future use, in Python print is a function, so you would enclose what you are printing in parentheses (like: "print(name)"). But never do anything in a challenge that the challenge doesn't ask for, it can cause your answer to not pass.
