What should I put as my else also is there anything else wrong?

Please I am not sure what to put as else if you could help with that and see if you can spot anything else it would be much appreciated.

trial.py 
def add(nice, cool):
try:
    return float(cool) + float(nice)
except ValueError:
     return None
else:
    return cool + nice

I checked your code, and it throws an error because of your indentation. You need to put your code inside of the function and it passes the challenge.

def add(nice, cool):
    try:
        return float(cool) + float(nice)
    except ValueError:
        return None
    else:
        return cool + nice
