Hi there! You're doing great, but you have a syntax error because of an extraneous equals sign.

You wrote:

response.equalsIgnoreCase=("No")

But you meant to write:

response.equalsIgnoreCase("No")
//Note the removal of the = between equalsIgnoreCase and ("No")

Hope this helps! :sparkles:

OMG thanks a lot
