5,035 PointsWhat’s wrong with this code for the just_right() function?
It looks as if it should work, unless I’m meant to check it’s a string first?
def just_right(thing):
if len(thing) < 5:
print("Your string is too short")
elif len(thing) > 5:
print("Your string is too long")
else:
return True

So close! and easy to miss ... the challenge requires that you return
the strings, not print them.
Have fun coding :)
