The line of code you provided is written in Python and appears to be using a library called "emoji" to work with emojis. Here's an explanation of what this code does:

Code Explanation

1. from emoji import emojize: This line imports a specific function called emojize from the “emoji” library. The emojize function is used to convert emoji shortcodes (like :thumbs_up: and :grinning_face:) into their corresponding emoji characters.

2. print(emojize(":thumbs_up: Jayden and Will are awesome! :grinning_face:")): This line calls the emojize function with a string as its argument. The string contains emoji shortcodes surrounded by colons, and it also includes some text (“Jayden and Will are awesome!”).

   • :thumbs_up: is a shortcode for the thumbs-up emoji.
   • :grinning_face: is a shortcode for the grinning face emoji.

   The emojize function replaces these shortcodes with the actual emoji characters and returns the modified string.

   Finally, the print function is used to display the modified string (with emojis) in the console or terminal.

So, when you run this code, it will output a message with emojis in place of the shortcodes, like this:

👍 Jayden and Will are awesome! 😁

It’s a simple example of how to use the “emoji” library in Python to add emojis to your text.
