Answers to the Challenges, Quizzes

I think it would be great if after a few failures, we could get the answer to the questions.

Sometimes I get stuck even though I know the answer but the required answer is too specific, or the phrasing is a bit ambiguous.

I end up losing a lot of time that could be used in a much better way.

Edit: Those fill in the blank questions are driving me crazy. The main point of a website like Treehouse is to make the learning process enoyable and less "school like". But those Quizzes are really ruining the experience for me. Too bad because I like the site, but I think I will not go on after the free trial.

Hi Vincent,

I see your point and have felt the same myself.
While it wouldn't be right to give out the answer as you got the question wrong, I've sometimes passed a code challenge while getting one answer incorrect and never found out what that one incorrect answer should have been.
It has usually been the correct fill in the blank answer that i have wanted to know too.

Thank you for your answer. I would really appreciate if the blank spaces were removed!

Cheers
