Python Web Development Techdegree Student 5,158 PointsBoolean - corecing value to be true
At the start of the video Craig gives an example of has_taco = "taco" in "catacombs" has_taco true
Using the above example i created my own one and i get false
has_special = "apple" in "orange"
has_spacial
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 'has_spacial' is not defined
I don't understand why i am getting FALSE..Any ideas thanks in advance

Python Web Development Techdegree Student 38,322 Points'apple' in 'oranges' should return FALSE, but the error from the given example is because of a typo
# Here the variable name is has_spEcial
has_special = "apple" in "orange"
# Here it's has_spAcial
has_spacial
