another thing from the OP that no one has addressed yet is what *this* means:

>/ > Write an expression (not a statement!)
/
to the veterans, we don't have to think twice, but this may not be
obvious to a beginner. basically, an expression is something like 4 *
5, foo(), [x for x in range(5)], etc. that evaluates to *some* Python
object, like a number, instance, or a list, etc. this also includes
function (calls) because it is associated with the single return value
that comes back from every call.

in contrast, a statement is something that has no intrinsic value (nor
associated Python object), such as print, pass, continue, or any
keywords like those.

hope this helps too!
