Says that it didn't get the expected output. I'm not sure what it is asking for exactly.
# The dictionary will be something like:
# {'Jason Seifer': ['Ruby Foundations', 'Ruby on Rails Forms', 'Technology Foundations'],
# 'Kenneth Love': ['Python Basics', 'Python Collections']}
#
# Often, it's a good idea to hold onto a max_count variable.
# Update it when you find a teacher with more classes than
# the current count. Better hold onto the teacher name somewhere
# too!
#
# Your code goes below here.
def stats(teachers):
result = []
for item in teachers:
result.append('{}, {}'.format(item, len(teachers)).split(','))
return result

Treehouse Moderator 68,454 PointsIn Task 3, you're asked to: Create a function named stats that takes a dictionary of teachers and returns a list of lists in the format <code>[<name>, <number of classes>]</code>. The input will be the similar to the dictionary shown in the challenge comments.
The expected output will be a "list of lists" where each list is of the format <code>[<name>, <number of classes>]</code>. such as:
[['Jason Seifer', 3], ['Kenneth Love', 2]]
