Your code will automatically print the second element in the list (eventhough it is not the longest string) because of the condition "if lst[0] != max" This will be always True on second iteration: To fix: -> set the first element of the lst as default "max". max = lst[0] -> change the max if it is longer than the previous one. -> print max outside loop or after iteration. If you need more explanation, please feel free to ask. Thanks! https://code.sololearn.com/cA8A15A6A4A1
