434 PointsThis bites! Online answers are no-help and I'm giving-up, moving-on to the next step.
admitted = None if age >= 13: admitted = True
The first step above passes
else: admitted = False
second step fails. I've tried all sorts of alternatives and variations and it keeps taking me back to step one.
admitted = None
if age >= 13:
admitted = True
else:
admitted = False

28,558 PointsThe code in your solution is technically correct, but the indentation (spacing) is wrong. else
statements has to be indented to the same level as the if
statement they accompany. Like this:
admitted = None
if age >= 13:
admitted = True
else:
admitted = False
In python getting indentation right is essential as Python determines how to group code blocks almost entirely on how they are indented. You can end up with code that act widely different from its intended behavior simply by messing up the indentation.
