Again-confused!

I can't see why I am getting the message that store_open is not true. I've tried putting the number in brackets as a list, quotes...etc because I thought Python may not be "seeing" things correctly. Again, my logic looks ok....

membership.py 
store_open = None
store_hours = [9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18]
time = "12"
if time in store_hours:
  store_open = True 
time = "3"
if time not in store_hours:
  store_open = False

HI Carole,

you don´t need to set time yourself. The challenge will do it for you !

Delete both time lines :)

I always make these challenges harder than what they need to be. I think I am actually trying to do the program- not the challenge.

Thank you again for the speedy answer! It worked! I was concerned because the challenge mentioned using else but I did not see a need for it. It passed without it . I suppose the challenge just wanted me to THINK -always a good thing until I overthink!

Safe travels!
