When I was doing the code challenge for "use and if" I used all of the hints given but it still says I have failed......

can anyone tell me what I did wrong?....

branching.py 
favorite_color = input("What is your favorite color?  ")
if favorite_color == "Blue":
     print("You must love the sky!")

Hi Sharrann,

The checks they do are sometimes very persnickety. You capitalized blue. Just put it in lower case and you'll be good.

Hope this helps!
