Hiya Moe!! I'd only mention the lines of codes that needs to be rectified so yeah here we go:
python
print(name)

This line of code will throw an error 'coz the variable "name" is not defined. Python tryna find this variable and it couldnt so it threw an Error. To prevent this bug, all you have to do define the "name" variable and assign anything to this variable.
python
print(5 + "a")

In Python, this line of code will throw a "TypeError". Why? Its coz ya cant add an integer to a string. So yeah to prevent this bug , just convert "5" to a string. 
python
print("Thanks for playing along!')

this line of code will throw a SyntaxError coz you've to be consistent with quotes. If you've opened a string with a single quotes , then end it with a single quote as well. And same goes for double quotes. I'd recommend ya to stick with double-quotes in python. 
Consider these suggestions and your code will pass with flying colors. (:
