Because you are doing it wrong ,why are you taking color as input when you are not going to use it anywhere? and (if red elif green elif black), all results in true ,only the first condition will be checked resulting in output as always 1 according to your solution Program is asking to check if color is green than output 2 ,if red output 1 and if black output 3 if color=="red": print(1) elif color=="green": print(2) elif color=="black": print(3)

Try writing: if color=="Red": print(1) elif color=="Green" : print(2) And the same for black. As the variable color is the input and it should be Red/Green/Black, you have to write: if color=="Red/Green/Black".

color = input() if color == "red": print(1) elif color == "green": print(2) ...I'm sure you can fill the rest to account for black.

Abhay i was taking color as input because that's what the challenge was telling me to do. Your answer works. I had tried yours before but didn't put the colors in string quotes. Thanks !

Riley Your first code outputs type string. Your 2nd code outputs type integer. A string character is similar to text, letters that form a message. An integer is a number which may be used to resolve math problems. Strange as it may seem, think of "2" as the letter 2 Think of 2 as the number 2 PS: This query should have been in a separate post

//your code goes here Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in); String color = sc.nextLine(); switch(color){ case "red": System.out.println(1); break; case "green": System.out.println(2); break; case "black": System.out.println(3); }
