Challenge is broken ?

I Tried on ipython, and on a workspace, and it gives me a set of all the prerequisite, in both platform. I am pretty sure that it's the good answer. Maybe I didn't understood the probleme correctly ?

Out[61]:
{'Django Basics',
 'Flask Basics',
 'Object-Oriented Python',
 'Python Basics',
 'Python Collections',
 'Setting Up a Local Python Environment'}

You answer is mostly correct. The key is in the task description: "You should add() the title of the prerequisite to the pres set and then call prereqs again with the child courses." That is, only prerequisites should be added. The top-level course "Django Basics" is not a prerequisite.

This has stumped many others. search the community pages for "prerequisites". You're in good company.
