line-endings aka mapping.py - what is wrong?

I don't know what I'm missing with this one. . . I feel like I've done what was asked, and when I run my code in IDLE, it looks the way I think it's supposed to, but I can't get it to pass the test. What am I missing?

mapping.py
TILES = ('-', ' ', '-', ' ', '-', '||',
         '_', '|', '_', '|', '_', '|', '||',
         '&', ' ', '_', ' ', '||',
         ' ', ' ', ' ', '^', ' ', '||'
)


for i in TILES:
    if i == "||":
        line_end = "\n"
        #print(i, end=line_end)
    else:
        line_end = ""
        #print(i, end=line_end)
    print(i, end=line_end)

Hi Jennifer,

if the tile is a double pipe you shouldn't print it, but print a new line only.

Happy coding

If i is the double pipes, you should not print i, and should only print a newline.
