Python Python Basics (2015) Python for Beginners Create a variable

For the very first python coding challenge... I can't seem to set the variable properly. Any ideas what is up?

I know that python isn't like C or most other languages in that you don't need to declare variables ahead of time. Still, this code challenge has me stumped.

variable.py 
name = "Raiden"

Your code appears to pass the challenge on my machine. Maybe try running it again?
