whats wrong with my stats function?
seems to work fine on pycharm with some test cases.
# 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(some_dict):
return len(some_dict.keys())
def num_courses(some_dict):
return sum(len(courses) for courses in some_dict.values())
def courses(some_dict):
return [i for courses in some_dict.values() for i in courses]
def most_courses(some_dict):
max_key = None
big = 0
for k, v in some_dict.items():
if len(v) > big:
big = len(v)
max_key = k
return max_key'
def stats(some_dict):
return [[k, len(v)] for k, v in some_dict.items()]

65,469 PointsYou seem to have a stray '
symbol on this line:
return max_key'
Note that this error isn't in the stats
function, is appears in one of the previous functions, most_courses
.
I hope this helps
Happy coding!

function is 100% correct. The error is he left a stray '
symbol on this line (in his most_courses
function):
return max_key'
