Tell us what’s happening:

I cannot find the problem with the indentation here.

Your code so far


# User Editable Region

text = 'Hello Zaira'
shift = 3
def caeser():

    alphabet = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'
    encrypted_text = ''

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

Welcome to the forum @ckw

You should write caesar as the function name after the def keyword.

Check for a typo in the function name.

Happy coding
