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

Treehouse TeacherHi there! Your code is functional and prints out the correct results. However, it does not meet the specifications of the challenge. The challenge explicitly states to return the strings... not print them.
"If the length of the string is less than five characters, return "Your string is too short"."
If I take your code and change the prints to returns, it passes the challenge.
Hope this helps!
