    1. What was the error that you think i made?
      My sentence was "Before I sleep I like to eat because I dream unusually about animals"

  2. Zacharia, that was what I decoded as well.

    Jess, I think your conversion of the word "unusual" into the word "unusually" was stretching the rules more than we expected, perhaps? :-)

    Your second to the last word actually codes to "the" instead of "about". Other than the quirky word choice, that was the only error I found.

    Here is my decode for reference:

    DNA: CCTACACACAAGTACAACCGAACGTCAATCAAGTTCTGACCTTAATCGG
    RNA: GGAUGUGUGUUCAUGUUGGCUUGCAGUUAGUUCAAGACUGGAAUUAGCC
    Codons: AUG UGU GUU CAU GUU GGC UUG CAG UUA GUU CAA GAC UGG AAU UAG
    (start) After I sleep, I like to eat because I dream unusual the animals. (stop)

    1. Thank you Prof. I understand where I went wrong and this was a good learning experience that helped me fully understand the coding and decoding process.
