You have the right code but the indentation (horizontal spacing) is wrong. In Python indentation is used to group code. code that belongs to a certain thing (like a function, a loop, a conditional statement, etc) has to be indented to be one level deeper the thing it belongs to. Like this:

def printer(count):
    print("Hi " * count)

I concurred with andren, you indentation is incorrect.

I'll be careful about the indentation next time :) Thanks !
