please, reset the lesson so you get back to the starting code, then use find on a new line
it does not work , I don’t know why
Can you share your updated code?
It asks to pass text[0] to the find method.
Also, a method will return a value, it’s not a variable that you can assign something to.
Here’s an example of passing a value to a method:
string.endswith(variable)
I called the method .endswith() on the string variable and passed variable to the method.
You won’t be able to assign a value to a method like that. The instructions also don’t mention anything about assigning the alphabet to this?
Call find() on the variable called alphabet, pass in text[0], nothing else. You already assign the alphabet string in the previous line.

do not change the assignment of a value to alphabet, operations on the alphabet variable go after the line in which it is created, please reset the step and try again
Thanks that is was so helpful to me
