I'd prefer to know what you've tried that's failed :smiley: It will be a much better learning experience for you in the long run (imho) if we can help you work out where you're going wrong.

Hi Adria - I agree with Jennifer Nordell. Now, if you don't know anything about handling exceptions take a look at this video:

After watching the video, give the challenge a try and if it doesn't pass then post what you've tried here.
