Python

Tell us what’s happening:

I cannot make it through. Please, could you help me with the task?
running_total = 0

num_of_friends = 4

appetizers = 37.89
main_courses = 57.34
desserts = 39.39
drinks = 64.21

running_total = appetizers + main_courses + desserts + drinks

print('Total bill so far: ’ + str(running_total))

Your code so far

running_total = 0

num_of_friends = 4

appetizers = 37.89
main_courses = 57.34
desserts = 39.39
drinks = 64.21


# User Editable Region

running_total = appetizers + main_courses + desserts + drinks

print('Total bill so far: ' + str(running_total))

Yeah, this step is a little quirky. The tests are looking for two arguments in your print function (the space should come before the second argument)…and you were not asked to apply the str() method to running_total.

Do you mean like this?

running_total = appetizers + main_courses + desserts + drinks

print(‘Total bill so far:’ + ’ ’ + {running_total})

That’s not “quirky”; that’s expecting us to have information that’s not in the task.

we are working on improving this task, meanwhile it’s quirky like that
