1,388 PointsPython collections: Task 3 out of 5 Why is my code not populating a list?
In the third snippet of code, I am creating a function with one variable in the argument. Then, I am creating an empty list. After, I am writing a for loop to get all the values inside the dictionary. Also, I am appending/extending (neither worked) to the "t_course" empty list via "cour" and trying to return all the courses in a single list unsuccessfully!
# 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(_dict):
return len(_dict)
def num_courses(_dict):
t_courses = 0
for courses in _dict.values():
t_courses += len(courses)
return t_courses
def courses(_dict):
t_courses = []
for cour in _dict.values():
t_courses.extend(cour)
return t_courses
