αΊ hat is wrong with my repeat and if statement here
def repeat(string, times)
fail "times must be 1 or more" if times < 1
counter = 0

# YOUR CODE
repaet(string, 5)
counter = counter + 1

Treehouse TeacherHi there, Fabian Pijpers ! Inside your do block you have something called repaet
. They are only asking you to puts string
. That displays whatever string it was. Then increment counter
which you've done just fine. You only need to replace:
repaet(string, 5)
with...
puts string
Hope this helps!

Courses Plus Student 41,372 PointsThanks for showing where i really went wrong. you showed me why i missed, and what reasoning on my part needed to be altered. Withoud you i would still be in a loop of trying thousand of things misguided by my own idea of what something is. Thanks again.
