No quite sure what I am supposed to do here. The question appear sto ask me not to set an age and instead worry about the IF condition. My apporoach
if not age >= 13: admitted = False else: admitted = True
does not seem to work . Any advice?

826 PointsBtw, Thayer, when I enter the code you suggested,
admitted = None if age >= 13: admitted = True else: admitted = False
and I click on 'Check work', I receive the following error notice: Bummer! invalid syntax (<string>, line 5)
Any idea why that is?
