I've entered the code exactly the way I've come to understand it, also verbatim from the exercise file.

include <stdio.h>

int main() {

// insert code here...
float radius = 14.5;
printf("%f radius .\n", radius);

}

Is this what you were looking for:

float radius = 14.5;
printf("A ball with a radius of %f inches", radius);

If so, the problem was, is that you weren't doing what it asked, it wanted you to print out more information that just %f

OK, great thanks, that was annoying though. The challenge didn't actually check out if you used proper syntax by wrapping your code with curly braces.
