Can anyone give me a hint to this

Looking for a hint. I've already capitalized the t in in total

src/code.my.com/git/sales/sales.go
package sales

var total = 1234.56
report.go
package main

import(
  "fmt"
  "code.my.com/git/sales"
)

func main() {
  fmt.Println(sales.Total)
}

Hi there, Nosherwan S.! The total needs to be capitalized in both places. The package file is sales.go. Anything inside that that is not capitalized will not be exported so it won't be able to be referenced in the main package. Make sure to capitalize total to Total in both files.

Hope this helps! :sparkles:
