is_2012 code challenge

Hi,

I think this should pass for step 1 of the code challenge. I am not sure what the argument is but I'm assuming it's a datetime.

is_2012(date): return date.year == 2012

filters.py
import datetime

dates = [
    datetime.datetime(2012, 12, 15),
    datetime.datetime(1987, 8, 20),
    datetime.datetime(1965, 2, 28),
    datetime.datetime(2015, 4, 29),
    datetime.datetime(2012, 6, 30),
]

is_2012(date):
    return date.year == 2012

You forgot def. Functions always need the def keyword.

Genius use of the date.year and equal operand, by the way.
