2,589 Pointshelp with my code getting a syntax error
i don,t know whats wrong with my syntax on myList
# The dictionary will be something like:
# {'Jason Seifer': ['Ruby Foundations', 'Ruby on Rails Forms', 'Technology Foundations'],
# 'Kenneth Love': ['Python Basics', 'Python Collections']}
#
# Often, it's a good idea to hold onto a max_count variable.
# Update it when you find a teacher with more classes than
# the current count. Better hold onto the teacher name somewhere
# too!
#
# Your code goes below here.
def most_classes(teachers):
max_count = 0
max_teachers = ''
for key in teachers:
class_count = len(teachers[key])
if class_count > max_count:
max_teacher = key
max_count = class_count
return max_teacher
def num_teachers(teachers):
teacherNumber = 0;
for teacher in teachers:
teacherNumber += 1
return teacherNumber
def stats(teachers):
myList = []
for item in teachers:
myList.append([item, len(teachers[item])
return myList

Courses Plus Student 26,868 PointsThis line in your code myList.append([item, len(teachers[item])
is missing the closing ]) at the end, change it to
myList.append([item, len(teachers[item])])
Should fix the problem
