Here’s my code:

```python
function cleaveWhenClose(target) {
    if (hero.distanceTo(target) < 5) {
        if (hero.isReady("cleave")) {
            hero.cleave(target);
        }
    } else {
        hero.attack(target);
    }
}
while (true) {
    var enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy();
    if (enemy) {
        cleaveWhenClose(enemy);
    }
}

```

This is an easy level and I have done it before but I forgot-

@Hydrobolic? or someone??

It looks like the function’s _if and else statements_ has mistakes.

Looks closer.

It doesn’t matter with your items. Look:

> if (hero.isReady("cleave")) {
> hero.cleave(target);
> }
> } else {
> hero.attack(target);
> 
> ```

_The if and else statements do not match!_

@Vanessa, just indent the “else” by one tab space and youll be good. let me know if you need anything else and if that was the only problem, could you delete the code? otherwise other ppl would easily be able to copy it
