Hi!
This first exercise is meant to help you understand how Exercism works. Did you watch the video on the Hello World page? In it Jeremy explains what you need to do to solve this exercise. You can reset the code by clicking on the three horizontal dots ··· at the upper right corner of the website. If that does not help, please post your code and the error messages on a #get-help thread (or, this thread if this is inside #get-help) using code blocks.

Note Discord let's you edit messages

[snow lintel]

Okay so I have tried ```
Def hello ‘Hello, World!’

Wait the proper code formatting didn’t work? I’m trying to do it right sorry!

[solid pawn]

```
On its own line, before and after the code

[snow lintel]

In the expected code

Those aren't ` characters

[snow lintel]

ope!

oooh okay I see which charters

[solid pawn]

You can't use arbitrary types of quote characters interchangeably 😁

You can edit/update your prior message

[snow lintel]

Thank you! So is the hello world in quotes?

[solid pawn]

In your code or in the expected code?

I would recommend resetting the exercise to the start and working from there

You're given valid code/syntax to start you off

[snow lintel]

Okay thank you I’ll try again!

def hello ('Hello, World!') 

[solid pawn]

Did you watch the video?

[snow lintel]

yes I did a few times

Jeremy tells you to only change one thing in the code

You should use the starter code and only change the string value. All the other code should be unchanged.
The code you shared is changed much more.

[snow lintel]

def hello('Hello, World!'):
    return 'Goodbye, Mars!'

getting a syntac error o

[solid pawn]

That looks like very different syntax than what you start with

Revert to the start code. Look at what it has. Look at what the tests say about that code. What about the initial code needs changing?

If you start with code that has valid syntax and change something that causes a syntax error, then you should undo that 🙂 That indicates your change is not valid.

YOU ARE A GEMMMM

I DID IT
I AM SO PROUD THANK YOU!!

[solid pawn]

Good job. Congrats.

It pays to go slow and carefully
