Oops! It looks like Task 1 is no longer passing.

I dont understand this error message

days_alive.py 
age = 35
days = age*52*7
summary = "I am " + int(days) + " days old !"

Hello Konstantinos!

You want the string version of days here, not the integer version like you did!

Also, please note that you have an extra space at the end of the string which is not required.

When step 2 or 3 or whatever introduces a syntax error, it'll report that step 1 is failing because it can no longer pass the validation for step 1.
