3,313 PointsVague error message with correct output .
I am getting error message with exactly same output as requested :( . I would love to solve this but I do not understand what is wrong .
def most_classes(teachers_dict):
result_disct = {}
maxValue = 0
for key in teachers_dict:
if len(teachers_dict[key]) > maxValue:
maxValue = len(teachers_dict[key])
result_disct = {key: len(teachers_dict[key])}
return list(result_disct.keys())[0]
def num_teachers(teachers_dict):
teachercounter = 0
for key in teachers_dict:
teachercounter += 1
return teachercounter
def stats (teachers_dictionary):
return list (result)
def stats(x):
teacher_list =[]
for key in x:
teacher_list.append(key)
teacher_list.append(len(x[key]))
return teacher_list

You can achieve this by combining your two append statements:
## Change ##
teacher_list.append(key)
teacher_list.append(len(x[key]))
## to ##
teacher_list.append([key, len(x[key])])
