It appears a lot of the challenges ask you to create variables but when you try to check your work it's marked incorrect.
It's due to the inconsistency of defining variables with or without an underscore.
You ask to define firstitem but the challenge on error says it can't find first_item
This appears to be for most in these challenges.
