"a" > "b" is wrong for the question

The question asks me to see if the value of "a" is greater than "b" I put "a" > "b" and that failed. I also put: a = "a" b = "b" a > b which is also wrong

Hi Edward,

You tried a > b? That should have passed the challenge for you.

You don't want to quote the variable names.

oh thanks. The quotation marks in the question tripped me up.
