NameError: name 'if_buzz' is not defined

When running the same code as the teacher's solution.

Inputting the number: 234

Results in this error:

treehouse:~/workspace$ python challenge.py
Please enter your name: Name
Please enter a number: 234
Hello Name!
The number 234...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "challenge.py", line 30, in <module>
if is_fizz and if_buzz:
NameError: name 'if_buzz' is not defined

The code is exactly the same as the teacher's solution. What causes this error?

It works fine with pretty much every other number.

What you posted is a temporary workspace link. To get a permanent link you need to use the snapshot function (button with camera icon).

Thanks Chris, you found it! It was that typo.
