17,062 PointsHello, u misunderstood the challange, they want u to use a for loop to loop through each element in the contients array.
continents = [
'Asia',
'South America',
'North America',
'Africa',
'Europe',
'Antarctica',
'Australia',
]
# Your code here
#u loop through each elemnt of the contients array
for contient in continents:
#then u want to print each element if the element starts with "A" , u do this by checking if the first index of the element is equal to "A"
if(contient[0] == "A"):
#if it is we print this element.
print("* " + contient)

- arguments should be separated by a comma (,) instead of a colon (:)
- you should print all the continents, but "
range(0,3)
" will only print the first 3 - you don't really need an index, you might use the list itself as the iterable
- anything that is part of a loop must be indented more than the "for" line
- add a space after the asterisk to keep it from being right next to the name
