Python Basics Task 2 of 2

For task 2 of the challenge, every time 'admitted ' is not False.what shoud i do.

3 Answers

admitted = None
if age >= 13:
  admitted = True
else:
  admitted = False

Since Kenneth is creating the 'age' variable for us, we just need to add an if/else conditional.

I made the stupid mistake of changing the value of the variable "admitted" to the number 13. and then proceeded with - if age >= 13: print("true"). some reason it worked and i passed task 1 :/ . but, this cleared the whole thing up, thanks!

Be sure that you are not assigning age to a value in your code. The grader will set age to various values when testing your code.

You must set admitted to the proper boolean values on each branch of your if / else statement.
At the end of task 2, admitted will have had three values set in the code, total.
