Don't attribute yourself the best answer mark (green tick): it doesn't give you any XP, rather show a bad image of you (shame), and almost pervert this feature purpose, which is to highlight useful answer in addition to not be respectful of people who are spending time to help others @@

Answer 7

I'm not sure which language you're using but it would be something like this:

print(name[0] + name[1] + name[2])

This would output ABC from your string.

+ is how you would do it in c#, other languages have different concatenation characters (e.g. & in VB iirc).
