Describe your issue in detail here.

How I’m supposed to know how is an “empty space” represented in Python when there was no step behind which explains that? I’m Googling 20 minutes just to find how to solve this and nothing can help me. I tried both with " " and ’ ', without and with space between. Also I found “Isspace()” but that also doesn’t help. Anyone can explain me a little bit more?

Your code so far


# User Editable Region

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

char == ' '
print(char == ' ')

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