A Dictionary in a Dictionary Syntax
#4
Problem is that you have strings within a string. Python can't tell where one begins and the other one ends. you have three ways to fix this.
1. change the outer string from double quotes to single quotes.
    full_name = f'{user_info["first"]} {user_info["last"]}'
2. change the inner strings to use single quotes
    full_name = f"{user_info['first']} {user_info['last']}"
3. use the format() method
    full_name = "{} {}".format(user_info["first"],user_info["last"])
