Now, make a function named summarize that also takes a list. It should return the string "The sum of X is Y.", replacing

From the Putting the Fun Back in Function Challenge Functions

The error "oops task 1 is no longer passing" usually indicates that a syntax error as been introduced. This causes all tests to fail, and hence, task 1 to stop working.

It looks like summarize() needs to be outdented to be at the same level as add_list()

Also, there is an extra paren ")" , and the return statement should not be inside the for loop. Remove one indent from your return result line from your summarize() function. Also, your add_list() function return statement is also intended too far.

  def summarize (another_list) :
    sum = 0 
    for number in another_list): # <--- REMOVE extra paren
      sum = number + sum 
      return "The sum of {} is {}".format(str(another_list), sum)  # <--- this is indented too far

By "outdent" I mean one indention level needs to be remove from every line in the summarize() function. All together it would look like:

def add_list(lst) :
  result = 0  # <-- Changed starting count to 0
  for item in lst:
    result += item
  return result  # Fixed Indent

# Fixed indent of entire function
def summarize (another_list) :
  sum = 0 
  for number in another_list: # <--- Removed extra paren
    sum = number + sum 
  return "The sum of {} is {}".format(str(another_list), sum) # Fixed Indent

Acknowledging Sam Matrouh for suggestion the challenge objective of using add_list in the summarize function

def summarize (another_list) :
  return "The sum of {} is {}".format(another_list, add_list(another_list))
