My First Script - Looking For Help

[dsorci]

Hello Everybody,

This is my first script, and I am looking for advice...

I am trying to get the variable "response" to populate in another variable called body.

You can see here what I'm trying to do. I tried the following

def get_hostname():
    response = raw_input("Please enter your name: ")
	body = '[{"hostname": "response"}]'

...and...

def get_hostname():
    response = raw_input("Please enter your name: ")
	body = '[{"hostname": "print(response)"}]'

And I tried other variations but I can't seem to find the right way to do this.

Any help would be appreciated.
