Tell us what’s happening:
I have followed the instruction on replacing the ‘if’ statement with an isinstance statement but my code is raising an error on the ‘if’ line of code, i don’t know what i need to add to it to make the code pass, please I need pointers on what to do
Your code so far
def caesar(text, shift):
# User Editable Region
if
isinstance(shift, int):
# User Editable Region
return 'Shift must be an integer value.'
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)
