Regarding Challenge 4

Hi, I kinda don't understand the question. I tried to print all the courses but the result was 65(higher than the answer). Why that happeded?

def courses(idx_dict):
    course_list = []
    for idx in idx_dict:
        for sub_idx in idx:
            course_list.append(sub_idx)
    return course_list

You are code would be much easier to work out and others to follow if you used more meaningful names, such as instead of 'idx', you said 'teacher' and instead of 'sub_idx' you said 'course'.

        for sub_idx in idx_dict[idx]:
