PEP8 Quiz: What am I Missing Here?

Not sure what the formatting issue is with my code.

starter.py 
numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]


def add(num1, num2):
    return num1 + num2


def subtract(num1, num2):
    return num1 - num2


def mathy(num1, num2):
    up = add(5 + 7, 7 + 9)
    down = subtract(6, 3)
    return add(up, down)

The error message gives you a hint: "Bummer: Your file has 1 error(s) on line(s) 15: blank line at end of file." But this hint is a bit misleading other than the focus is on the end of file.

But the part about a blank line isn't accurate. The actual issue is that the challenge is expecting a newline before the end of file but there currently isn't one.

That worked! Could have sworn I tried that already.

Thanks!
