Tell us what’s happening:

//just stuck here dont know how to get over it
text = ‘Hello World’
shift = 3
alphabet = ‘abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz’
encrypted_text = ‘’

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

Your code so far


# User Editable Region

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

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

Welcome to the forum @itspraveen

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

  1. you are not asked to assign anything to char
  2. compare the expected space to your code

Happy coding
