Tell us what’s happening:

I’m not sure why my answer is not being accepted, is it an indentation error?

Your code so far

alphabet = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'
shift = 5
shifted_alphabet = alphabet[shift:]
print(shifted_alphabet)
shifted_alphabet= alphabet[shift:] + alphabet [:shift]
print(shifted_alphabet)

Instead of thinking of this as deleting the first line I would think of this as the instructions telling you to modify your code instead of repeating it.

It is great that you solved the challenge, but instead of posting your full working solution, it is best to stay focused on answering the original poster’s question(s) and help guide them with hints and suggestions to solve their own issues with the challenge.

We are trying to cut back on the number of spoiler solutions found on the forum and instead focus on helping other campers with their questions and definitely not posting full working solutions.

Struggling with the same step.. I can get the right answer I believe but the testing won’t accept my answer..

alphabet = ‘abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz’

shift = 5

shifted_alphabet = alphabet[:shift]+alphabet[shift:]

print(shifted_alphabet)

Hi @walter.carl.stuart , I suggest you create a separated post. This avoids the moderators to come back on an already solved subject.
