The error seems to caused by a typo. There is a comma inside the string and no comma between the string and the len:

print("There may be," len(optional_ppl), "coming to the meeting") 

Post back if you need more help. Good luck!!!

Dantee, there seems to be no issues with the first print function, and it works fine when I copy paste it into my own workspace. The only error in the file is the typo in the second print function, maybe fixing that helps sort out any errors you might have?
