Treehouse TeacherHi there! There are a couple of problems here. First, you've changed the name of the list from messy to messay. You should start by reverting back to the name that the challenge specifies, Secondly, there may not be a space between the name of the list and the index of the list.
# This format will work
del myList[0]
# This format will not work
del myList [0] #note the additional space here
Hope this helps!

del?It is most likely because you've changed the list's name messy to messay. Too, there is a space between messay and [2] which you can omit.
