I tested this in pycharm and it works, all previous functions still seem to work as well, but here it throws me an error saying task 4 is no longer working. Haven't touched it though.
# 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.
count_teachers = []
def num_teachers(teachers):
for key in teachers:
count_teachers.append(key)
return len(count_teachers)
count_courses = []
def num_courses(teachers):
values = teachers.values()
count = 0
for val in values:
count += len(val)
return count
courses_names = []
new_list = []
def courses(teachers):
for k,v in teachers.items():
courses_names.append(v)
for list in courses_names:
for item in list:
new_list.append(item)
return new_list
def most_courses(teachers):
max_count = 0
for k,v in teachers.items():
if len(v) > max_count:
max_count = len(v)
max_teacher = k
return k
final_list_teachers = []
def stats(teachers):
for k,v in teachers.items():
first_list = k,len(v)
teacher = list(first_list)
final_list_teachers.append(teacher)
return final_list_teachers

Treehouse Moderator 68,441 PointsThe return
in the function most_courses
is indented too far. This causes the for loop to return at the end of the first iteration.
Not flagged as an error, but the initialization of final_list_teachers
should be done inside the stats()
function. Otherwise, stats()
would only work on the first call. Subsequently it would not be reset to the empty list.
