Hey! I think i got this second part right, on the right side it shows just "A" starting continents but won't pass

I get AssertionError: "* Asia' not found in 'Asia\nAfrica\nAntarctica\nAustralia' : Hmm...not finding the correct items in your output" I'm not sure what this is please help someone :)

continents.py 
continents = [
    'Asia',
    'South America',
    'North America',
    'Africa',
    'Europe',
    'Antarctica',
    'Australia',
]
for continent in continents:
    if continent[0] == "A":
        print(continent)

Hello Máté Séra ,

What you have works on my end, but it does not answer the challenge question. The challenge asks you to print a BULLETED list that will look like:

* Asia
* Africa
* Antarctica
* Australia

but your code will return a non-bulleted list that looks like this:

Asia
Africa
Antarctica
Australia

I think you know what to do now!

I tried the bulleted way before but didn't work but i tried again and i got it this time :) must have been a type-o or an indentation mistake. Thank you very much!! :))
