You made it harder than it was supposed to be. They didn't want you to write a function. They just wanted you to use the print function to print a String:

print("Hello, Treehouse")

Not sure what you did, but I just copied it and pasted it into the challenge and the editor accepted it.

Here's the challenge that I tried:

Challenge Task 1 of 1

Let's try something else! Again, you haven't done this yet, but you've seen it already. I need you to print something out for me.
Use the print() function to print the string "Hello, Treehouse".

Here's the code:

print("Hello, Treehouse")

I suggest you try again.
