Tell us what’s happening:

i have printed after the for loop please can anyone tell what did i do wrong

Your code so far


# User Editable Region

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

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

Right before the print call, add another one

Good, but your placement is not correct. “Right before the print call” should be the line immediately above the existing print

Tell us what’s happening:

so i have created the first print but after that step but now that ‘exsisting step is nowhere to be found’

Your code so far


# User Editable Region

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

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

Your new print line seems to be 5 lines above this one print('encrypted text:', encrypted_text). It should be on the previous line.

5

6

It’s still 6 lines above. The two print lines should be together.

print()  <--new print on previous line immediately above
print()  <--existing print
