Hey, I'd like to know the reason why this code is not correct please.

I can't seem to find the problem with my code.

continents.py 
continents = [
    'Asia',
    'South America',
    'North America',
    'Africa',
    'Europe',
    'Antarctica',
    'Australia',
]
print("continents")
for continent in continents:
    print("*" + continent)

Hi Serwaa

You are missing a space here after the asterisk print("*" + continent).

The output should look like this:

* Asia
* South America
* North America
* Africa
* Europe
* Antarctica
* Australia

Happy coding!
