keep getting syntax error. Not sure what I'm doing wrong?

it says unexpected end of input. i've made sure i have my ifs ending with end. Can anyone help me and explain to me what I'm doing wrong? thank you in advance!

ruby.rb
def check_speed(car_speed)
  # write your code here
  if car_speed >= 40 && car_speed <= 50
    puts "safe"

end

Hi,

for this challenge you forget to add the else statement in order to return the string "unsafe", and the end statement for the if block.

And the challenge is asking you to return the strings not puts.

Here's the code:

ruby.rb
def check_speed(car_speed)
  # write your code here
  if car_speed >= 40 && car_speed <= 50
    return "safe"
  else
    return "unsafe"
  end
end

Hope it helps! :wink:
