*Note: for this exercise, it is quite buggy about the answers it will accept. It will even mark it as an error for something minor like indentation or spacing. *

for continent in continents: print("* " + continent)

This is the correct answer and what has worked. There is a space after the asterisk.

for continent in continents: print("* " + continent)

`Correct Output shown on right side in test results: Output for continents.py

  • Asia
  • South America
  • North America
  • Africa
  • Europe
  • Antarctica
