What am I doing wrong?

We're in the macpan subdirectory within the games directory. Fill in the blank to complete a command to change to the dugdig directory that lives alongside macpan in the games parent directory.

We want to do this in a single command, so you'll need to form a path to the dugdig directory that uses the special symbol for the parent directory.

I'm putting ../dugdig

That's the correct answer. I even copied it directly from above and pasted into the quiz to test it ("Well done!").

You might try restarting your browser and return to the quiz and try again.

That's a different quiz question from the one that was asked about here.
