Don’t define a function the instructions don’t ask for this. Reset the step.

You have a string called text and a string called alphabet

text = 'Hello World'
alphabet = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'

You can find the position of a letter in the string using find

alphabet.find('z')
print(alphabet.find('z'))
>>> 25

So ‘z’ is at the 25th position of the alphabet string.

Now instead of finding z, we want to find the first letter of the string text. We access this by using text[0]

print(text[0])
>>> H

Modify your existing .find() call passing it text[0] as the argument instead of 'z'.

Reset the step and modify this line as instructed:

alphabet.find('z')
