Tell us what’s happening:

It is telling me to create a new_char but I already have, where did I get it wrong

Your code so far


# User Editable Region

text = 'Hello World'
shift = 3
alphabet = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'

for char in text.lower():
    index = alphabet.find(char)
    print(char, index)
    new_index = index + shift
new_char = alphabet[new_index]
print('char:', char, 'new char:', new_char)

You’re very close! Think about the for loop, is that really how it should end and does everything in the for loop run each time ? Let us know if it works out for you. Good luck!
