It sounds like you tried to call a function that doesn't exist or one that you misspelled on line 36. You should try re-watching the videos and restructuring your code because it looks very confusing and out of order. Also use the markdown cheatsheet when posting code so that it's properly formatted and easy to read for people to answer your question quickly. use 3 backticks ( ``` ) on separate lines before and after the code so:

this is some code
