Hi David, I tried your code in the challenge and it worked fine for me. You might have to log out and back in to make it work.

A leading blank space is a syntax error.

Running the above code raises the error:

Bummer! IndentationError: name = "David"

Thanks for answering, I missed the space when I copied the code. :)

Thank you Mr Freeman. Much appreciated sir.
