1,608 PointsIF,ELIF,ELSE function works in workspace but not on test
I honestly can't tell what's wrong with my code, I create the function and use a proper if/else statement and all of it works in workspaces but is not approved on test.
def just_right(arg):
if len(arg) < 5:
print("Your string is too short")
elif len(arg) > 5:
print("Your string is too long")
else:
return True
just_right("string")

9,104 PointsAlmost there! The challenge asks for the values in each case to be returned, but in the code sample you shared they are currently being printed. For example, return "Your string is too short"
should do the trick!
