# insert your code here
my_tuple='I','love','python'

Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 22, in test_code_expectations AssertionError: Regex didn't match: 'my_tuple\s=\s[/(]?\\'?\"?I\"?\\'?,\s\\'?\"?love\"?\\'?,\s\\'?\"?python\"?\\'?[/)]?' not found in "my_tuple=('I','love','python',)" : To create a tuple, my_tuple should be equal to comma separated values. You can also use parentheses around the values if you want.

Ah, the good ol regex. Seems like to check your solution regex is used in the back. You'll learn about regex soon.

Coming to the error displayed *AssertionError: Regex didn't match: 'my_tuple\s=\s[/(]?\'?\"?I\"?\'?,\s\'?\"?love\"?\'?,\s\'?\"?python\"?\'?[/)]?' *.

notice that my_tuple have \s before and after the equals sign, \s means space, so try this;

my_tuple = 'I', 'love', 'python'

Give a space before, after the equals sign, and after every comma.

Oh yes, thank you so much, it worked!
