I have tried just about everything. I don't know why it's not working? If anyone has any last ditch efforts I would appreciate it. Thank you for all the help!

return product_idea + "inator"

Thank you that was it. You were my last run at it and you helped me out. Thank you so much.

def suggest(product_idea):
return product_idea + "inator"
if len(product_idea) < 3:
Can you please raise a ValueError if the product_idea is less than 3 characters long? product_idea is a string. Thanks in advance!
def suggest(product_idea):
# Check the length
if len(product_idea) < 3:
# Raise a ValueError if the length is less than 3
raise ValueError
# Then return
return product_idea + "inator"
