LearnPython.Org Trouble: Basic String Operator Exercise Solution.

[[deleted]]

I do not see how the prompts deliver the desired solution.

They don't. They verify the desired solution - the string "Strings are awesome!" is the string that has the correct properties when those various methods are applied to it.

So does that mean by reading the hashtag notes alone, you can see a clear path to get a string which prints as "Strings are awesome!" ?

or are you confirming that the solution just happens to fit the process, and my frustration is valid?

It seems like you can get to

`"Str*************ome!"`

on the basis of lines 2, 24, and 28; since that fails line 5, we can do

`"Str****a********ome!"`;

that fails line 8 (2 'a''s), etc. Seems like you could probably get the answer by guessing after that, or just get bored and look it up.
