It works and I tested on my ide but not here.
# 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(a):
return len(a)
def num_courses(dic):
number = 0
for v in dic.values():
number += len(v)
return number
def courses(dic):
course_list = []
for v in dic.values():
course_list.append(v)
return course_list
def courses(dic):
course_list = []
for v in dic.values():
for a in v:
course_list.append(a)
return course_list
def most_courses(dic)
m_courses = 0
for k , v in dic.items():
if len(v) > m_courses :
m_courses = len(v)
teacher = k
return teacher

- the line is indented by 1 space
- there's no colon at the end of the line
Did it really work like that in your IDE?

7,199 Pointsthank you ...these typos are ruining my life, I wrote it correct on my ide but not here, I understand that the colon is important but I dont understand why does one space doesnt run the code
