2,588 PointsTeacher Stats Task 3/4; Task 1 no longer passing
The problem here lies, I suppose, in the first function, most_classes. BUT it passed reliably in both previous Tasks. I'm a bit confused, as the code of this first function was not altered in any way.
# The dictionary will be something like:
# {'Jason Seifer': ['Ruby Foundations', 'Ruby on Rails Forms', 'Technology Foundations'],
# 'Kenneth Love': ['Python Basics', 'Python Collections']}
#
# Often, it's a good idea to hold onto a max_count variable.
# Update it when you find a teacher with more classes than
# the current count. Better hold onto the teacher name somewhere
# too!
#
# Your code goes below here.
def most_classes(teach_dict):
max_count = 0
max_classes = ''
for teacher, classes in teach_dict.items():
if len(classes) > max_count:
max_count = len(classes)
max_classes = teacher
return max_classes
def num_teachers(teach_dict):
count = 0
for teacher in teach_dict:
count += 1
return count
def stats(teach_dict):
stat_list = [,]
for teacher in teach_dict:
stat_list.append([teacher, len(teach_dict[teacher])])
return stat_list

2,588 PointsOkay, nevermind. Apparently the issue was with incorrectly defined empty stat_list. The comma is required only when creating tuples... Still have no idea why it stopped Task 1 from completion.
