Could you be more specific? What exactly don't you understand, or even

my code is:

How could you have written so much code without understanding it?

Something is missing from that last statement. Can you tell what it is? Do
you know how to find out? Hint use help.

Hint 2 it is also missing from the elif and else statements.

There is a convention in Python that and all uppercase name is a constant.
This is not a requirement.
