Build an Employee Profile Generator - Step 2

[cmelende]

Tell us what’s happening:

I keep getting the prompt “You should assign a string formed by concactenating first_name and last_name to your full_name variable” which I have done. No error shows in the terminal. I’ve checked the forum and no solutions there have helped. I’ve run my code through ClaudeCode and it verified my solution was correct. I need to figure out what I’m doing wrong. I’ve been stuck here for 3 days.

Your code so far

first_name = 'John'
last_name = 'Doe'
print(first_name)
print(last_name)

# User Editable Region

full_name = first_name + '' + last_name
print(full_name)

# User Editable Region

Welcome to the forum, @cmelende !

@cmelende

full_name = first_name + '' + last_name

You were just asked to concatenate first_name and last_name with no string between them. (btw, that’s an empty string, not a space).

Happy coding!

hi @Thabiso_24 , it’s better if you create your own topic.

I am going to ask you, is employee_age a string you need to concantenate or a variable?
