Regular Expression

Question

I think there is something that is quite confusing.
In the code
"import re

str = "My name is David. Hi David."
pattern = r"David"
newstr = re.sub(pattern, "Amy", str)
print(newstr)

you define a variable str, which I did not pay attention, but is a variable type, so first Its not the best name for a variable. I honestly did not pay attention to that, and thought that after Amy I had to declare the replacement type, I was quite lost about it. Until when asked for a hint and an "n" appear.

I think It would be nice to change the variable name, so its not misleading.
Also, I think calling a variable using a type its not correct at all.

Thanks, all the course is a amazing

Pablo.
