Mauve error : I need Help

Bummer: AssertionError: 'Mauve' not found in 'Red is what I like It\nRed is also called as saffron\nThe color Red is a great color!' : Make sure you are printing out 'The color Mauve is a great color!' (Mauve is my favorite that I inputted)

best_color= input("What is your favorite color? ") favorite_color = "Red" print(favorite_color,"is what I like It") print(favorite_color,"is also called as saffron") print('The color',favorite_color,'is a great color!')

When I place Mauve In favorite_color, it says "Red", when I place "Red", It says Mauve.

I'm not sure how using best_color passes the first task but it does. However the instructions state to store the input result in variable favorite_color.

favorite_color = input("What is your favorite color? ")

After this you are doing more than the challenge asks but you do have the correct code to complete task 2 in there.

print('The color',favorite_color,'is a great color!')

Include just these two lines and you'll pass the challenge

Seriously , This challenge was really fraustrated for me as well , spent last 2 hours just going through this ,I encountered the same issue as @siva , Just not happy with the description appears during the challenge, tells something else and then it turns out to be something else!
