Capitalize Washington

reallyrosie · February 21, 2018, 6:39pm

president = "washington"
truth = "Liver is excellent."
print(president.capitalize)
print(truth.replace("excellent", "horrible"))

The error I get is: <built-in method capitalize of str object at 0x7f3ea0401900>
Liver is horrible.
None

This is practially the way codeacademy tells me to code this. Any idea what to write here?

calling a method, .capitalize() requires parentheses

Yep. And while adding the parentheses in the code created the right result
in the console… Codeacademy isn’t accepting the answer.

Please share the exercise url, updated code and error message

president = "washington"
truth = "Liver is excellent."

print(president.capitalize())
print(truth.replace("excellent", "horrible"))|

Result:
Washington
Liver is horrible.
None

Error message:

Oops, try again. The president should have his initial letter in upper case.

Please update to the supported version of the python track:

the president variable should contain correct result, so you need to update the president variable by storing the returned result of capitalize
