--description--

Next, modify your print() call to print 'encrypted text:', encrypted_text and put it outside the for loop, so that the encrypted string is printed one time.

--hints--

You should print 'encrypted text:', encrypted_text after your for loop.

js
({ test: () => assert.match(code, /^print\s*\(\s*("|')encrypted\stext:\1\s*,\s*encrypted_text\s*\)/m) })

You should not have print('char:', char, 'encrypted text:', encrypted_text) in your code.

js
({ test: () => {
    const commentless_code = __helpers.python.removeComments(code);
    assert.notMatch(commentless_code, /print\s*\(\s*("|')char:\1\s*,\s*char\s*,\s*("|')encrypted\stext:\2\s*,\s*encrypted_text\s*\)/)
  }
})

        encrypted_text += alphabet[new_index]
    print('char:', char, 'encrypted text:', encrypted_text)
