Build a Greeting with Concatenation

Beginner · Write the code · from Python Strings: Create, Access, Slice, and Manipulate Text

From the lesson: Python Strings: Create, Access, Slice, and Manipulate Text

Think about your phone. Almost everything you see on the screen is text: names in your contacts, messages from friends, search results, notifications. Behind the scenes, all of that text is handled by strings.

Read the lesson

You are given two variables: first_name set to "Ada" and last_name set to "Lovelace". Create a variable called greeting that combines them into a message, then print it.

Expected output:

Hello, Ada Lovelace! Welcome to Python.

Use string concatenation (+) to build the greeting.

first_name = "Ada"
last_name = "Lovelace"
# Create the greeting using concatenation (+)
# Print the greeting
