Tell us what’s happening:

I have tried positioning ( char == ‘’ ) within my for loop in the scientific computing course and cannot find where to place it or what i have done wrong for it to not pass.

Your code so far


# User Editable Region

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

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