You just asked this same question two hours ago!
Since then, it looks like you've made some other changes that are not related to the assignment. Be careful to change only the parts needed to fix the existing code.
Here's the answer I already posted to your previous question, and an extra hint:
This challenge is unusual in that the provided code has errors, and your task is to fix them. The major issue here has to do with the scope of the variable named output:
- output is defined more than once
- output is defined inside the if statement, but it is referenced outside of it
To fix these, you'll want to move the definition of output to the proper scope, and then replace the multiple definitions with ordinary assignments.
You won't need to make any changes to input, all the problems are with output.
