--description--

Remove the last print() call. Then, instead of text[0], pass text[0].lower() as the argument to your .find() call and see the output.

--hints--

You should not have print(text.lower()) in your code.

js
const commentless_code = __helpers.python.removeComments(code);
assert.notMatch(commentless_code, /print\s*\(\s*text\.lower\s*\(\s*\)\s*\)/);

You should still print your index variable.

js
assert.match(code, /^print\s*\(\s*index\s*\)/m);

You should update your alphabet.find(text[0]) call to use text[0].lower() as the argument. Pay attention to place the method call at the beginning of the line.

js
assert.match(code, /^index\s*=\s*alphabet\.find\s*\(\s*text\s*\[\s*\s*0\s*\]\s*\.lower\s*\(\s*\)\s*\)\s*(#.*)?$/m);

Your code contains invalid syntax and/or invalid indentation.

js
({test: () => assert(true) })
