Hi! No need for “index” here. Remove it, add text[0] instead of ([0]) and your code will pass

4

alphabet.find(text[0])
i have done many changes it’s not working

Your code raised an error before any tests could run. Please fix it and try again.

This code passes for me. Try to clean cache, cookies or use another browser to pass
