Tell us what’s happening:

I’ve been a bit stuck at this step, usually the issues that i have read on are about indentation but i think mine is ok. Maybe there is something that i’m not seeing or remembering

Your code so far


/* User Editable Region */

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

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

/* User Editable Region */

Hello A1ejandr001,

Unfortunately your indentation is not correct yet. The else is basically a reply of the if, and should be on the same width. After that you can adjust the rest under the else statement accordingly with the adjustement you made.
