I think i might have a compiler issue because my code seems to be correct. How do I avoid the compiler issues? thanks
# The dictionary will look something like:
# {'Andrew Chalkley': ['jQuery Basics', 'Node.js Basics'],
# 'Kenneth Love': ['Python Basics', 'Python Collections']}
#
# Each key will be a Teacher and the value will be a list of courses.
#
# Your code goes below here.
def num_teachers(teacherDict):
return len(teacherDict)
def num_courses(teacherDict):
total = 0
for courses in teacherDict.values():
total += len(courses)
return total
def courses(teacherDict):
course_list = []
for courses in teacherDict.values():
for course in courses:
course_list.append(course)
return course_list
def most_courses(teacherDict):
max_count = 0
teach_max = ""
for teacher, courses in teacherDict.items():
if max_count < len(courses):
max_count = len(courses)
teach_max = teacher
elif max_count > len(courses):
continue
elif max_count == len(courses):
continue
return teach_max

231,275 PointsYour code looks good.
Often, when code looks good posted in the forum but doesn't run in the challenge, it's because the indentation has mixed spaces and tabs. Be sure to use only one or the other consistently and you should pass.
You can also copy from above and paste directly into the challenge.
