5,063 PointsMy solution of float challenge
Here is what I wrote it:
/* ---- Columns ---- */
.secondary {
width: 40%;
float: left;
}
.primary {
width: 60%;
float: right;
}
.col {
padding-right: 1em;
padding-left: 1em;
}
I saw a little different solution in the video, but finally two approaches look the same. Is it still ok?
Thank you ;)

So the video code saves a line by sharing the float property in the common "col" class instead of giving each side a separate one.
