For section 1.9 I'm stuck trying to figure problem 6 and 8 out.  Could "my-name" could be used as a legal variable.  My gut tells me the minus sign "-" would throw my code off.

Ok figured it out, my-name is not a legal name cause it contains an operator.
Example:
>>> my-name = ahncharles
SyntaxError: can't assign to operator
>>> 

as for question 8.

>>> COLOR = "comes in red, orange, and blue!"
>>> print COLOR
comes in red, orange, and blue!
>>>
