Help with 'if' command

I'm trying to have admitted to equal 'true' if the age of said variable is 13 or more. Here's my code.

admitted = None
if age > 13

I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

conditions.py 
admitted = None
if age > 13

You are close. you have your if condition correct. Need the colon at the end of the if line. Then you need to say what you want to happen if the if condition is met.
