Tell us what’s happening:

I don’t understand where I’m going wrong. I’ve rewritten the line so many times but nothing seems to be working

Your code so far

def caesar(text, shift):
    
# User Editable Region
    if True:
        print("Shift must be an integer value.")    
# User Editable Region

    alphabet = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'
    shifted_alphabet = alphabet[shift:] + alphabet[:shift]
    translation_table = str.maketrans(alphabet + alphabet.upper(), shifted_alphabet + shifted_alphabet.upper())
    return text.translate(translation_table)

encrypted_text = caesar('freeCodeCamp', 3)
print(encrypted_text)
