Print multiple evaluated variables without double quotes throughout a sentence not constructed by concatenation, special procedure, function, or macro

Hi,

I just finished the SKILL introductory course and understand everything but am struggling with little things. I could not find the answer online.

The closest I got is:

animal="cow"

celestial_body="the moon"

printf("%s%L%s%L%s" "The " animal " jumped over " celestial_body ".") ---> The "cow" jumped over "the moon".

I want the output to look like ---> The cow jumped over the moon.

Is there a way to do this without additional lines of code?

Thanks.

    Use %s instead of %L. Normally %L is used for lists or when you aren’t certain of the type of the data in the argument (eg for debugging)
