Let's practice with indexes!
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".
var_one = 'youat'

35,170 PointsThe answer would be any string or list with a 't' at index 5, so if i modify your original string 'youat' to be 'youatt' then it passes, since the index will now look like this with a 't' at position 5:
0: y 1: o 2: u 3: a 4: t 5: t
