No, you didn't.  You wrote:

print('''Ah, so your name is %s, your quest is %s, and your
     favorite color is %s.''') % (name, quest, color)

The difference between those two statements may not be entirely clear to
someone not experienced in reading code carefully.

Consider the difference between:

   print(a % b)

   print(a) % b

In the first example, the round brackets group the "a % b", which is
calculated first, then printed.

In the second example, in Python 3, the "print(a)" is called first, which
returns None, and then "None % b" is calculated, which raises an
exception.

Just to add confusion, the two lines are exactly the same in Python 2,
where Print is not a function!


You are using Python 3.  In Python 3, "print" is a function that returns
None.  So, the error is exactly correct.  To fix it, you need to have
the % operator operate on the string, not on the result of the "print"
function:

print('''Ah, so your name is %s, your quest is %s, and your
     favorite color is %s.''' % (name, quest, color))
Exactly correct.
