What am i doing wrong? I can get it to work outside of the treehouse environment.

https://teamtreehouse.com/library/flask-basics/welcome-to-flask/multiply-view

flask_app.py 
from flask import Flask

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/multiply/<int:num1>/<int:num2>')
def multiply(num1, num2):
    return '{} * {} = {}'.format(num1, num2, num1*num2)

There are a few errors to correct:

  • keep the route from Task 1 unchanged. add a second route for task two.
  • in the /multiply route, default values are needed for num1 and num2. Add this in the function parameter list.
  • the challenge asks only to return the value of the multiply as a string. Do not include the equation in the string.

Post back if you need more hints. Good luck!!
