This is my code

```julia
function read_data(typeData, labelsInfo, imageSize, path)
 #Intialize x matrix
 x = zeros(size(labelsInfo, 1), imageSize)

 for (index, idImage) in enumerate(labelsInfo["ID"])
  #Read image file
  nameFile = "$(path)/$(typeData)Resized/$(idImage).Bmp"
  img = load(nameFile)

  temp = Gray.(img)

  #Transform image matrix to a vector and store
  #it in data matrix
  x[index, :] = reshape(temp, 1, imageSize)
 end
 return x
end

imageSize = 400

path = "street-view-getting-started-with-julia"

labelsInfoTrain = CSV.read("$(path)/trainLabels.csv")

xTrain = read_data("train", labelsInfoTrain, imageSize, path)

labelsInfoTest = CSV.read("$(path)/sampleSubmission.csv")

xTest = read_data("test", labelsInfoTest, imageSize, path)

```

No worries! You should also quote your code with 3 backticks:

````julia
```
foo(x) = x + 2

y = foo(42)
```

````
