Just isn't right

So, this is my code:

def just_right(argument): if len(argument) < 5: return "Your string is too short" elif len(argument) > 5: return "Your strint is too long" else: return True

pretty similar to someone else's code except mine doesn't work. I wonder why?!?

strlen.py
def just_right(argument):
    if len(argument) < 5:
        return "Your string is too short"
    elif len(argument) > 5:
        return "Your strint is too long"
    else:
        return True

Hey Bruno! You got it, you simply made a typo on your second return, you wrote "strint" instead of "string". Hope this helps!
