functions and dictionaries
# 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(tdic):
maxn = 0
prof = ""
nlist = []
for pro in tdic:
nlist = tdic[pro]
if len (nlist) > maxn:
maxn = len(nlist)
prof = pro
return prof

Treehouse Moderator 68,441 PointsMUZ140890 David Duri , Looking specifically at your code, it appears your return
statement is overly indented and is within the for
loop. This will return from your function on the first iteration. Try unindenting the return
to line up with the for
statement:
def most_classes(tdic):
maxn = 0
prof = ""
nlist = []
for pro in tdic:
nlist = tdic[pro]
if len (nlist) > maxn:
maxn = len(nlist)
prof = pro
return prof
I've increased the indentation to 4 spaces for clarity
