Tell us what’s happening: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)

Hi there, welcome to the community!

Regarding your code, the lesson asked you to:

Clean the output a bit. Delete print(char, index), and turn the last print() call into
print('char:', char, 'new char:', new_char)

However, you’re not fully following the instructions yet:

  1. Please remove the first print() inside the loop that prints char and index.
  2. Also, make sure you are including the colons (:) in the final print statement exactly as asked.

Fixing these should help you pass the test. Let me know if you need help with anything else! :blush:
