Hey guys, tried everything within my reach but do not seem to get it correctly.. any ideas on how i can get the teacher with the most classes printed out? 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(dict):
number_teachers=0
for key in dict.keys():
number_teachers += 1
return number_teachers
def num_courses(dict):
number_courses=0
for value in dict.values():
number_courses += len(value)
return number_courses
def courses(dict):
name_courses=[]
for value in dict.values():
name_courses += value)
return name_courses
def most_courses(dic):
max_count = 0
teacher_most_classes = " "
for key in dic:
if len(dic[key]) > max_count:
max_count = len(dic[key])
teacher_most_classes = key
return teacher_most_classes
