Mapping.py working in shell but not passing code challenge

The following code is working fine for me in Workspaces but isn't passing the code challenge. Not sure what I'm missing or if the code challenge verification is throwing an error. Of course, my assumption is that I'm doing something wrong. Thanks for your help.

mapping.py 
TILES = ('-', ' ', '-', ' ', '-', '||',
         '_', '|', '_', '|', '_', '|', '||',
         '&', ' ', '_', ' ', '||',
         ' ', ' ', ' ', '^', ' ', '||'
)

for i, char in enumerate(TILES):
    if char == '||':
        print("\n")
    else:
        print(char, end="")

The print includes a built-in end-of-line character. Use print("") instead of print("\n")

That worked. I thought I had tried removing the \n before posting my question. I guess I hadn't. Thanks.
