Tell us what’s happening:

Describe your issue in detail here.

please help me it said at the beginning of your loop body, print the result of comparing char with a space (' ' ). Use the equality operator == for that. but if run it this the result always - You should compare char with a space using the equality operator inside your for loop.

Your code so far


# User Editable Region

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

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

These tests are quite fussy - just do what it says, don’t use a variable

still having issues my code is like this:

text = ‘Hello World’
shift = 3
alphabet = ‘abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz’
encrypted_text = ‘’

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