Treehouse TeacherHi there, Richard Preske ! You're off to a terrific start and I'll bet you knew that given that you passed the first 2 steps of the challenge. The problem lies in the last line. You are passing in the string 'newParagrah'
as opposed to the variable newParagraph
. Removing the single quotes from the last line solves this issue.
Hope this helps!
