How to solve

I don't understand how to do this and can't find anything in the community posts. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

starter.py 
import logging

logging.basicConfig(filename='cc.log', level=logging.DEBUG)

try:
    [1, 2, 3].remove(4)
except ValueError:
    logging.error("tried to remove invalid value")

Hi Fredric,

I think you may be over-thinking the challenge. You don't need the try and except blocks. In fact all you need is one line (similar to your last line but with a slight modification). The challenge asks for a logging level of "debug".

Remember how to log different levels:

logging.error()
logging.warning()
logging.info()
# ...etc.

Good luck.
