There are a number of topics left out from the teaching slides, because they are not central in programming concepts. However, these are details that are useful. Many of these are related to Python syntax. Some is related to string formatting.

Naming rules

When you want to use a variable, you have to give it a name. This is also true, again, with functions that you want to create. Providing good names helps people, including yourself, understand your programs faster and better.

In Python, there are rules regarding how to name things. You can choose names like x, total, or even I_love_You_so_Much, but you can't have variables or functions with names like 2things, x/y, or sum of numbers.
