Courses Plus Student 619 PointsIt doesn't tell me anything about an error only that "bummer! your name_list doesn't match your name."
it says that it doesn't match my name. does that mean that its taking data from other projects where I may have just put in what ever instead of my name? how can we reset this? I went back into the other projects and none of it is saved. This could be a deal breaker if its collecting information like this.
full_name = "***** ******"
name_list = " ".split(full_name)

full_name = "***** ******"
name_list = full_name.split()

Courses Plus Student 619 Pointsyep I see that now. Thanks. I was too wrapped up around the error output not matching my name and not what was happening.
