Hey @aakashdinkar,
Something went wrong with the build.

TravisCI finished with status errored, which means the build failed because of something unrelated to the tests, such as a problem with a dependency or the build process itself.

Please create a function for your algorithm of the form:

def rail_fence_encrypt(msg: str, key: str) --> str:
    """
    >>> rail_fence_encrypt("Hello!", "secret")
    'xdketlq'

These are type hints and a doctest as discussed in CONTRIBUTING.md.
