Can't solve Number Game Error

I cannot figure out what is wrong with my code. I keep getting a syntax error on line 24 which is: print("It took you {} guesses.".format(len(guessed_nums))))

What is wrong with this line?

if player_num == rand_num: print("You win! My number was {}.".format(rand_num) print("It took you {} guesses.".format(len(guessed_nums))) break

I noticed that a parentheses ) was missing on the first print action call by the if statement! otherwise I would need to look at more of your code to determine otherwise! Hope this helps!

if player_num == rand_num: print("You win! My number was {}.".format(rand_num))
print("It took you {} guesses.".format(len(guessed_nums))) break
