My code isn't working for "Set a variable called "too_fast" equal to "true" if the car_speed is faster than the speed_limit and "false" if the car_speed is less than the speed_limit."
Anybody know what I've done wrong?
car_speed = 55
speed_limit = 60
# Write your code here
too_fast = "true"
if car_speed > speed_limit
puts too_fast
else
puts "false"
end
