YES! The last two times I was stuck, it was because of formatting, (for
example: format("something", .2f)). I still havent got it figured out

because I didnt fully understand something. I also feel like i'm going to
be revisiting the latter half of your comment when I'm in action. My
current teacher said that documentation is one of the most important and
underrated aspects of programming. How much of that do you agree with?
