So far you've learned about: - __the prompt__ - typing commands (code) into the Python prompt results in answers in Python - __numbers and strings__ - in Python numbers are used for math and strings for text objects -- __functions__ - are actions in Python. You've used both English-language functions (upper(), len()) and symbolic ones (+, *). +- __operators__ - like + and *, combine values to produce a new one +- __functions__ - like upper() and len(), perform actions on objects. These are the basics of every programming language you learn. Ready for something harder? We bet you are!
