Functions Challenge 2 of 2

I can't seem to pass and I have no idea what the problem is. Your help is much appreciated, thanks!

my_list = [1, 2, 3]

def add_list(my_list): total = 0 for num in my_list: total = total + num return total

def summarize(my_list): y = (my_list).str() x = add_list(my_list) return("The sum of {} is {}.".format(y,x))

return summarize(my_list)

Hi Evan,

Your line y = (my_list).str() just needs to be y = str(my_list).

Also you don't need to return the summarize function itself.
