I am not able to proceed it from here.

Whats incorrect in below code.

I am getting error "Oops! It looks like Task 1 is no longer passing."

que : Using .extend(), .append(), or +, add two new items onto the end of best. Again, the items can be anything you want.

Solution:

best.extend('hi')

best.append('efg')

best += ('hel')

best.append('12')

It looks like you're on the Combining Lists challenge in Python Collections, is that correct?

If so, task 2 of the challenge asks you to add two items to the list using .extend(), .append() or +. With your attached code, you're only trying to add one item at a time, and you're trying four different things, which is probably what's causing the task to fail. I don't know what list you started with, but you can either add a list to a list using extend (so, add a new list of two items to your existing list of three items), or you can append items individually using append or +=. Just make sure you're adding exactly two items, whatever method you choose! If you're unable to pass the second task, would you mind pasting a formatted version of your existing code using the Markdown Cheatsheet?

Let me know how it goes!
