Exactly what are you struggling with? You are asked to declare two variables of type char and assign some value to each of them.

Hi Cody, here's the code for the challenge. You are stating the type of the variable by the first word, 'char' in this case, then you are creating a name for the variable which would be 'alpha' (without quotes) then you are assigning a value to that variable using the = sign. The information on the right of the equals sign is then stored in the variable called 'alpha'. You would repeat this for the 'bravo' variable too. 

char alpha = 'a';
char bravo = 'b';

This could also be done like so:

char alpha;
char bravo;

alpha = 'a';
bravo = 'b';

I personally like the first method where you declare and initialise the variables in one line :)
