When I paste your code in to the challenge, the error I get is indentation error. Looks like you have a space before 'colors'. Remove that space and you should be good to go.

Stuart is correct. If you triple-click on the line to select the entire line, then the Copy/paste results in the error, because of the errant space at the beginning of the line. :) :dizzy:
