Hi Paul,

Sharing my comment on another post here:

It's really helpful when asking a question to the community to include your attempts to answer the question so we can help to identify where you're going wrong. Good posts will include a specific title related to the issue that you're having as well as a description of where you're running in to trouble. Without an attempt being made on your part to solve the challenge all we can really do is recap the whole lesson, which would be better served by reviewing the videos, attempting a solution, and then coming to the community only after you've made a solid attempt so we can steer you in the right direction.
