I don't know how my output isn't coming right with this quiz question.

Your code here

for continent in continents: print ("*" + continent)

I don't know what's wrong with my code for the desired output.

continents.py 
continents = [
    'Asia',
    'South America',
    'North America',
    'Africa',
    'Europe',
    'Antarctica',
    'Australia',
]

for continent in continents:
    print ("\n*" + continent)

for continent in continents:
    print("* " + continent +"\n")

\n: add a new line. What we are trying to do here is print "* " + continent, and then add a new line, and print the next continent.
