Task 6 - Formatted strings (f-strings)

Formatted strings let you embed variables and expressions directly inside a string by prefixing it with f (for “formatted”) and wrapping the value you want to insert in curly braces { }.

first_name = "Alice"
age = 30
greeting = f"{first_name} is {age} years old."
print(greeting)           # Alice is 30 years old.

Anything inside the braces is evaluated first, then converted to text:

width = 5
height = 3
print(f"Area: {width * height}")   # Area: 15

You can mix regular text and multiple placeholders in the same string.

Your exercise

1. Create a file called Task_5.py.
2. Inside it, declare three variables: first_name, last_name, and age.
3. Build a string called intro that reads: Hi <first_name> <last_name>! You are <age> years old. Use a single f-string, then print intro.
4. Add another print that uses an expression inside the braces to show the person’s age two years from now. Example output: In two years you will be 27.

When you run the file you should see two neatly formatted sentences that prove you have mastered basic f-strings.
