Hi Anthony,

I'm not sure exactly what you're asking. The question is telling you to prompt the user, not to 'prompt a variable'. You are supposed to assign the value you get from the user to the variable.

If you are unsure about how to get input from a user, try rewatching the video Input and Coding Style that is immediately before this challenge which covers exactly the topic of getting input from users.

If your problem with the challenge is something other than that, please describe it in as much detail as possible, and paste the code you tried.

Cheers

Alex
