Python
1

Tell us what’s happening:

Why is it considered wrong?
def caesar():
alphabet = “abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz”
message = “hello”
shift = 5

new_alphabet = alphabet[shift:] + alphabet[:shift]
encrypted = ""

for letter in message:
    index = alphabet.index(letter)
    encrypted += new_alphabet[index]

print(encrypted)

brother check the indentation, your def function and the code of your def function are on the same line, so you need to indent, meaning you need to press tab for all the code of the def function
