Probably silly question, from someone new to Python, how come we can't use the same code for 'recent_claims' that we used for 'reward_balance' - code in second line:

It's because `Amount` is a class in `steem-python` that splits a string like "10 SBD" into `amount`(10) and `asset` (SBD) as you can see [here](https://github.com/steemit/steem-python/blob/master/steem/amount.py).  The `float()` function just converts a number or a string into a float! If you really wanted you could do `recent_claims = float(reward_fund["reward_balance"].split()[0])` instead, but it's easier to just use `Amount` class.

There are no silly questions! I will let @amosbastian tackle this one though as he wrote this tutorial
