3,236 Pointsminutes.py got the wrong number of minutes
I do not understand why this keeps giving me the wrong answer. I wrote it in a file in workspaces and it was fine.
import datetime
def minutes(dt1, dt2):
diff = dt2 - dt1
return round(diff.total_seconds()/60)

Flagging Kenneth Love to check the validation on the Timedelta Minute challenge.
The posted code:
import datetime
def minutes(dt1, dt2):
diff = dt2 - dt1
return round(diff.total_seconds()/60)
Got the response:
It seems the challenge has the old expected value from before the test data was changed to be greater than a day.
