doctype quiz

first question of quiz asks me to define doctype html. this is what I wrote: <DOCTYPE html> <html></html>

I get a "bummer" response to "define html" I thought I did.

I think I found a mistake in the actual course video. When Nick Pettit defined "doctype" he failed to include the ! So when I followed along in workspaces, I typed < then DOCTYPE then > and omitted the exclamation point character. Might want to fix that.

Hello,can you post your code?

See my comment above. The exclamation point character was not included in the instruction video. I am going to attempt to answer using this code:
<!DOCTYPE html> Will let you know if I can proceed to the next question
