Hi Dan, At a quick glance, it's expecting a simple '-' hypen but it looks like you've provided an '–' em dash. Perhaps this is a copy-paste issue where the character used in the (pdf/html) lesson you're using is not what one would type, but looks very similar. I suggest try typing a simple dash (a minus sign) and see if it still complains about a bad operation. Hopefully, that's all it is.
