Remember: A variable is a named box that holds a value. One equals sign puts a value in, and print shows what is inside.
Read and answer
Read the story, then answer.
Where the game keeps its countZara's club game is nearly ready, and Bo hops along grabbing shiny coins. Leo asks how the game remembers how many coins Bo has. He tried tally marks on paper, but a gust of wind blew them away. The game needs somewhere to keep a number, with a name on it. Zara draws a box on the whiteboard and writes coins on its label. In Python she writes coins = 3, and three cubes drop into the box. That is a variable: a named box that holds a value. When Bo grabs one more coin, she types coins = coins + 1. Leo names a box my coins with a space, but Python refuses to read it. A name has no spaces, so he writes my_coins, and it works.

Dadds one

coins = coins * 2
coins = 2
print(coins)
coins = coins + 1
