# --description--

Now you need to do the same with your `elif` statement: put the `print()` and `make_allowed_move()` calls inside an `if` statement to execute when `n` is odd.

Also, turn the `# make_allowed_move(source, auxiliary)` comment into code.

# --hints--

You should nest your `print()` and `make_allowed_move()` calls inside an `if` statement to execute when `n` is odd.

```js
({ test: () => assert.match(code, /if\s+n\s*%\s*2\s*(!=\s*0|==\s*1)\s*:\s+print\(\s*f('|")Move\s\{\s*i\s*\+\s*1\s*\}\sallowed\sbetween\s{\s*source\s*\}\sand\s\{\s*auxiliary\s*\}\2\s*\)\s+make_allowed_move\(\s*source\s*,\s*auxiliary\s*\)/) })

```
