Remember list[] starts from index 0. The + symbol is used to concatenate the two strings. So what would the index for water and melon be? Try this in your editor. items = ["water", "bread", "orange", "melon"] print (items[ # ] + items[ # ]) In place of # put in the correct index number to get the #output: "watermelon"
