The page would not accept 10.0 as an answer when you bring “big_string” as it was a float, it wanted a definitive 10 to let me proceed, I couldn’t figure out how to do this as “float_1” and “float_2” are obviously both floats.
When I clicked “show me the answer” it basically wrote out the exact same code I had written, which when printed showed 10.0.
The provided solution resulted in an answer of 10, however the product of two floats should result in a float, 10.0. I would think that the following code provided as a solution would include a step that converts a float to an interger, unless, of course, the conversion of a float to a string automatically produces and interger.
Boolean, Numeric, and Text Sequence are the most commonly used types, but as you will have read above, there are others. At some point down the road you will be exploring them, starting with Sequences.
