membership.py challenge

can anyone help with this code? How would i write this?

membership.py
time = 15

store_open = None
store_hours = [9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18]
if time in store hours:
    store_open = true
else:
    store_open = false

1 Answer

Boolean values (True or False) need to be capitalized. You also forgot to put _ between store and hours.

Your code:

time = 15

store_open = None
store_hours = [9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18]

# variable is store_hours not store hours
if time in store hours:
# boolean value must be capitalized (True)
    store_open = true
else:
# again, capitalize (False)
    store_open = false

Edited:

time = 15

store_open = None
store_hours = [9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18]

if time in store_hours:
    store_open = True
else:
    store_open = False

Thank you so much for your help. Really means a lot. Trying to learn programming and change my line of work, I am a firefighter / paramedic.
