Here is my script line by line in python:

# An String
my_name="Geoff"
# An Integer
my_age=64
# A Float
my_salary=5.5
# A Boolean
is_hot=True
# DEfine a list
my_fruits= ['Apple', 'Banana', 'Strawberry']
# Printing
print(my_fruits)
#test script
greeting="Hello, World!"
my_integer=3.0
my_float=3.5
my_string="What a beautiful day"

fruits= ['Apple', 'Banana', 'Cherry']
print [fruits]
fruits= ['Apple', 'Banana', 'Cherry', 'Orange']
print [fruits]
my_second_age=64
my_info= ['"Geoff Keall"', 'my_second_age']
print [my_info]
 
This is my error report:
 
 
 
I'm not sure what not subscript-able means?

Is it important what sort of brackets I use and when a string is part of a variable does it need additional speech marks and does it matter whether the speech marks are double or single?
 
Any help great-fully received Thank You,
Geoff

Mostly syntax problems. After I fixed the brackets and braces as well as too many speech marks and wrong type it all worked.
