CREATING A LIST FROM A STRING

I am stuck. The list which l am creating is giving an error message. Where am l going wrong?

greeting_list.py 
full_name = "Taurayi Kwenda"
name_list = full_name.split()
greeting_list = (Hi, I'm, Treehouse)

It's just a simple punctuation error you have that I see. Try this:

greeting_list = "Hi, I'm Treehouse"
