Tell us what’s happening:

I get that I have to turn H into h and find it in alphabet, but I have no idea what goes into brackets after lower. Thanks in advance.

Your code so far


# User Editable Region

text = 'Hello World'
shift = 3
alphabet = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'
index = alphabet.find(text[0].lower())
print(index)

# User Editable Region

you may want to read again the instructions, you are making changes on the wrong line

3

I am re-reading the instructions over and over, English isn’t my first language and I do not get where is the mistake. When I try adding another print call it’s still not working.

4

what is your new print call?

5

print(text[0].lower())

6

and is it that what you are asked to print? check again the last sentence

I got it, thank you very much for your help and guiding me to think.
