In Programming FAQ under question "How can my code discover the name of an object?", in the second sentence, the word 'The' shouldn't be capitalized after the semi-colon.

Essentially, assignment always binds a name to a value; ---> The <--- same is true of def and class statements, but in that case the value is a callable. 

Assigning to @Mariatta for the sprints.
