Hey, what is your issue? Be specific, please.

Welcome to the forum @m7madkona

The forum does not give out solutions.

At the beginning of your loop body, print the result of comparing char with a space (' '). Use the equality operator == for that.

Try adding the code asked for. If you get stuck let the forum know.

For next time, describe the issue in your own words. Learning to communicate problems is a part of becoming a web developer.

Happy coding

It is great that you solved the challenge, but instead of posting your full working solution, it is best to stay focused on answering the original poster’s question(s) and help guide them with hints and suggestions to solve their own issues with the challenge.

We are trying to cut back on the number of spoiler solutions found on the forum and instead focus on helping other campers with their questions and definitely not posting full working solutions.
