I remember having seen that direct substitution like the below should be possible:

py = 'Python'
print(f'Hello {py}')

With the purpose to get:

Hello Python

But I can't make it work, or maybe I just use an Python 3 that is not new enough.

What is the syntax and what Python version supports direct substitution?

That's correct syntax. Requires python 3.6 – stranac Feb 10 '17 at 13:46
I think you need python 3.6 for that. Else use `format`: `'Hello {py}'.format(py=py)` – Jean-François Fabre Feb 10 '17 at 13:46
Thanks; I am using Python ver. 3.5, so that explains it... – EquipDev Feb 10 '17 at 13:53
