5,163 PointsWhy I get the Bummer! if the function is returning a list with all the courses?
I don't understand why I get the "Bummer! Didn't get all...." I tried to return that list in every way I know but I still get that Bummer!
# The dictionary will look something like:
# {'Andrew Chalkley': ['jQuery Basics', 'Node.js Basics'],
# 'Kenneth Love': ['Python Basics', 'Python Collections']}
#
# Each key will be a Teacher and the value will be a list of courses.
#
# Your code goes below here.
dictionary = {'Andrew Chalkley': ['jQiery Basics', 'Node.js Basics'], 'Kennetg Love': ['Python Basics', 'Python Collections']}
key_list = []
value_list = []
def num_teachers(dictionary):
for key in dictionary.keys():
key_list.append(key)
return len(key_list)
def num_courses(teachers_dict):
count = 0
for teacher in teachers_dict:
count = count + len(teachers_dict[teacher])
return count
def courses(dictionary):
for value in dictionary.values():
value_list.append(value[0])
value_list.append(value[1])
return value_list
print(courses(dictionary))

Treehouse Moderator 68,453 PointsThere are two errors.
- To get the first to challenges to pass, move the
key_list
andvalue_list
initialization inside of their respective functions. - When appending the teachers courses, keep in mind that there may be any number of courses and not precisely two.
Post back if you need more help. Good luck!!
