Tell us what’s happening:

I think there might be an error in the program. I put in

${bio}

. I know it is correct. But somehow, even when I reset, it gives me an error.

Your code so far

this worked for me. Try to reset in case you changed something else by mistake

3

Try copy/pasting the code as well after the reset.

There are sometimes issues with this challenge. You can try a hard refresh in the browser, or clearing the browser cache to see it that help.

4

I did try to resent many times. Also had the exact same problem with the next Step. I closed by browser and restarted and still had the same problem. Anyway, skipped over those two steps and now everything is working fine.

I would suggest you clear the cache or at least try a hard refresh. Closing the browser does not clear the cache (unless you have some setting for that enabled).
