    'Asia',
    'South America',
    'North America',

    'Europe',
    'Antarctica',
    'Australia',

for continent in continents:
    if continent(0)=="A":

Hello Nikel,

  1. Your code has continent(0), instead of continent[0].
  2. You left a white space in your print function. try this:

for continent in continents: if continent[0] == 'A': print('* ' + continent)

or for continent in continents: if continent[0] == 'A': print(continent)
