Challenge is broken. I am sorry but I tried this on my python console and got it to work to return True!!!

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

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

The other print statements need to be return as well.
