Answer 1

Print the header, then loop through the portfolio printing each line.

def print_portfolio(portfolio):
    print("Symbol Amount")
    for symbol, amt in portfolio:
        print(symbol, amt)

If you want the columns to line up, use a formatting method to specify the column widths:

def print_portfolio(portfolio):
    print("Symbol Amount")
    for symbol, amt in portfolio:
        print(f"{symbol:6} {amt:6}")
