Tell us what’s happening:

Not understanding why the code wont be accepted I have the IF statement and the f string correctly?

Your code so far

NUMBER_OF_DISKS = 3
number_of_moves = 2**NUMBER_OF_DISKS - 1
rods = {
    'A': list(range(NUMBER_OF_DISKS, 0, -1)),
    'B': [],
    'C': []
}


# User Editable Region

def move(n, source, auxiliary, target):
    # display starting configuration
    print(rods)
    for i in range(number_of_moves):
        remainder = (i + 1) % 3 
        if remainder == 1:
         print(f'Move {i + 1} allowed between {source} and {target}')

# User Editable Region


# initiate call from source A to target C with auxiliary B
move(NUMBER_OF_DISKS, 'A', 'B', 'C')

You don’t need to create a new variable to create this if statement.

Again, although the syntax and logic is correct, the instructions don’t ask you to create a new variable.

This is incorrect I did indeed have to make a variable with Remainder however the problem was with the If statement I did not include the line specified in the instruction after the “triggered when” portion.

Not sure what you mean, but I’m glad you got it :+1:

variable = 1 + 1
if variable == 2:

Is equivalent to:

if 1 + 1 == 2:
