Treehouse Moderator 145,860 PointsGlitch in the testing for prepareSubmission?
I really do love these local challenges, except when something doesn't work. Everything is completed, the build and run produces exactly what it is supposed to, but when I try to run the Gradle prepareSubmission, all of a sudden there are three tests not passing? But the tests that aren't passing are producing the correct output, so the code has to be correct, right? Frustrated as ***, Yep!
edit: added failing tests, but shortened to post
com.teamtreehouse.challenges.homes.MainTest > menuIsInclusive FAILED
com.teamtreehouse.challenges.homes.MainTest > stateCodesIgnoreBlanks FAILED

Treehouse Moderator 145,860 PointsWhen I build and run, the Imperative return has 1 -> 50, but #1 is empty. Mine (declarative) returns 1 -> 49 all sorted.

Treehouse TeacherTry using the zero index ( so i-1)
Jason Anders
Treehouse Moderator 145,860 PointsIf I add 1 to the range and use a zero index, the run output is now the same as the imperative, and now the Submission is producing only 2 errors.
- com.teamtreehouse.challenges.homes.MainTest > stateCodesIgnoreBlanks FAILED
- com.teamtreehouse.challenges.homes.MainTest > stateCodesAreSorted FAILED
IntStream.range(1, stateCodes.size() + 1)
.mapToObj(i -> String.format("%d. %s", i, stateCodes.get(i-1)))
.forEach(System.out::println);

Treehouse TeacherRange closed no +1....sorry on phone
Jason Anders
Treehouse Moderator 145,860 PointsNo worries. Feel bad for bothering you, but I REALLY appreciate it. Thank-you very much.

Treehouse TeacherAhhh i see "" is not null but it is empty. ;)
Jason Anders
Treehouse Moderator 145,860 PointsThat's kind of funny... because I also just figured that out! After sifting through the debug. Haha.
Changed
.filter(p -> p != null) // also tried .filter(Objects::nonNull)
to
.filter(p -> p != "") // also tried .filter(Objects::nonNull)
and everything works. YAY!!!!!!
Thank you so much for taking the time to help me work through that. It is very much appreciated! You rock!

Treehouse Moderator 145,860 PointsThat one really had me banging my head. Learned a great deal from working that though, so... good challenge! :)

Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Graduate 30,935 PointsYou used stateCodes.size() instead of regular integer for the range, you just ended hours of headache for me, thanks Jason lol
Ben Basty
23,772 Pointshi can anyone explain : .filter(p -> p != "")
Fernando Boza
25,384 PointsKinda late into the game but instead of filtering p with i just used
!state.isEmpty()
public static List<String> getStateCodesFromRecords(List<HousingRecord> records) {
return records.stream()
.map(HousingRecord::getState)
.filter(state -> !state.isEmpty())
.distinct()
.sorted()
.collect(Collectors.toList());
}
