Answer 1

It looks like you want to define two different variables: name and age.
In that case, you need to define each of them on a different line:

name = "mahbod"
age = 12

otherwise, here Python thinks that you are defining name as "Mahbod" age.
In python, you can concatenate strings by separating them with a space, like this:

>>> string = "Hello " "world"
>>> print(string)
Hello world

so that’s what Python is trying to do here, except that age is not a string, but a variable that you defined as 12, hence the confusion
