1,311 PointsCode challenge - task 4 Teacher Stats
I've tried a few approaches to resolving this but not having success.
My thinking was:
- unpack the dictionary to single key dictionaries
- compare value lengths
- return dict with greatest value length
This seems cumbersome. Could this be a valid approach?
thanks

230,274 PointsIf I recall correctly, the task 4 instructions ask for a list of lists instead of a dictionary. Also, I remember it wanting a count for every teacher, so you won't need to do any comparisons to determine a greatest length.
