:point_right: It shouldn't be quite this complicated.

Your list only needs 6 items in it: 3 numbers, two strings, and another list (of 2 items).

Try simplifying it so it matches the criteria (but with nothing extra). And remember that items in a list are separated by commas.

And most importantly, remember in an assignment that the variable name comes first, then an equal-sign ("="), and then the value being assigned (the list in this case).
