Tell us what’s happening:

I tried checking the forum for solutions. I need help. Which parts of the code should i focus to understand and solve this? What topics should i review ? I have no errors in this code, what is the main problem? Don’t give full answer. only hints at the mistakes in the code/

Your code so far

2

Unexpected format '<key>: <val>' at position <index>.

Please double-check what you are printing compared to the instructions. You are missing something.

3

is it a variable that i’m missing? is f-string correct?

4

Focus on this bit. Is that what you have done in your f-string?

thanks it finally works now. it is about strings.
