The challenge says "Make a new variable named var_one that is either a list or a string. Make sure that var_one[5], the item with an index value of 5, is the letter "t" - how do you approach this?

Well, you need to create a variable named "var_one", which has "t" at the index '5'. (remember that indexes start with "0")
Does it help?

var_one = ['a','b','c','d','e', 't']; also, this works out fine: var_one = "abcdet";
