                      "booleans", "integers", "floats",
                      "arrays", "strings", "exceptions",
                      "conditions", "input", "loops"},
    "Java Basics": {"Java", "strings", "variables",

def covers(topics):
    similar_list = []
    for course in COURSES:
        if COURSES[course] & topics:
            similar_list.append(course)
    return similar_listc



def covers_all(a):
    answer_list = []
    for keys, values in COURSES.items():
        if a <= values:
            answer_list.append(keys)
    return answer_list

Your code is correct - you just have a typo here:
