Python Python Basics (2015) Logic in Python Conditional Value

I am reading through the directions and they seem unclear. Do I need to change the variable admitted's value?

The directions say to create a line of code that states admitted >= 13 then its true but value for admitted is none

conditions.py
admitted = None

I think they're asking you to take advantage of the fact that the statement "age >= 13" is going to have a True or False value, and use that to assign the same value to "admitted" directly, like how "age = 1 + 1" will set age to 2.

remember, "=" sets a variable, and "==" compares for equality.

The existing code sets the initial value of "admitted".

You'll do a test, and based on the result you will give "admitted" another value.
