Python Development Techdegree Student 275 Pointsoh! I know what's wrong! I guess I don't understand what traceback is and why only the first example says traceback.

Treehouse Moderator 68,454 PointsA traceback or stacktrace is the Python interpreter giving you a source if the error. It can have many layers if the error occurred in a lower level function. A simple example:
>>> int('h')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: 'h'
