Challenge Task 2 of 2 Great work!
OK, let's create something a bit more refined. Create a new function named covers_all that takes a single set as an argument. Return the names of all of the courses, in a list, where all of the topics in the supplied set are covered.
For example, covers_all({"conditions", "input"}) would return ["Python Basics", "Ruby Basics"]. Java Basics and PHP Basics would be excluded because they don't include both of those topics.
Bummer: Try again!

231,275 PointsHere's a few hints:
- it looks like there may be a line missing between the last "if" and the "return"
- the "if" refers to "topic", but that name is not defined in that function
- you might need a slightly different test to determine complete coverage (vs. partial in the previous task)
