Moving from task 2 to 3 I keep receiving a message that says Task 1 is now incorrect

I have tried multiple time to pass this challenge and no matter what I do after passing task 1 it becomes incorrect https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4_BQ1oJr3MpUWxxOUVMVlMtLTQ/view?usp=sharing

Sorry I could not figure out how to get a screenshot in here

I am not touching the original answer from task 1 before moving on to the next task

Help Please!!!! Thank you

Screenshots are generally not very useful for issue analysis, but if you use the "get help" button in the challenge, it should paste your code in the question and add a button linking to the challenge, both of which are most helpful.

In the meantime, be aware that introducing a syntax error will always appear to the system as task 1 not passing when it performs re-checks.

It looks like this particular screenshot is useful after all. I see a stray equal sign between the function name "prompt" and the parentheses enclosing the argument. That would certainly cause a syntax error.

Thank you, Steven, that was the problem. I was confused as it was telling me there was a problem with the previous task. Thanks again
