I get a NameError when I try to do: varl="abcdet"

The question asks me to make a new variable varl, with either a string or a list, and make the element in the fifth index "t". So, when I tried to do varl="abcdet", I get a NameError saying the name 'varl' is not defined.

Well, if I see it right ... you have given the variable name varl (VARL) but it is var1. Try this, it should be fine. Cheers:)
