But in this case, your code should pass the challenge. I pasted your line directly into the challenge and it did pass for me. You might want to try again and if it still happens, contact the Support staff directly.

Treehouse TeacherHey there Nathalie Anfuso !
There was some maintenance going on with the challenges yesterday and they were temporarily not working, so it probably wasn't your code. It was only down for a few minutes though and everything should be all back to normal. Go ahead and git it another try if you haven't yet
Sorry for the inconvenience!
