More with 'for' unit 5, lesson 1, #9

#1

start_list = [5, 3, 1, 2, 4]
square_list = []

for number in start_list:
start_list.append(number**2)
start_list.sort()
print square_list

My indentation is correct, it changes for some reason
the first two lines underneath the for loop have 4 spaces

Anyways, I have no idea what to do, it says that the loop goes on forever, I don't know what the lesson even wants me to do.

#2

should be

for number in start_list:
    square_list.append(number**2)

square_list.sort()
