Learn String Manipulation by Building a Cipher - Step 5

Tell us what’s happening:

I know the answer is “print(text[6])” But it asked me to print index 6 instead of printing “text” so I don’t understand how

Your code so far


# User Editable Region

text = 'Hello World'
print(text[6])

# User Editable Region

it asks to print the character of text at index 6, so you get text and then you get the character at index 6 with bracket notation

Alright thanks but is there a way to make it without printing text

to pass the step? no, it asks to print

you can access the character in any context tho
like:

sixth_character = text[6]

text is the variable of the full string, the instructions ask you to print 1 character, not the full string of text. Do you see the difference?

You aren’t printing text, you are just printing part of it.
