2 failures - Python Project - Arithmetic Formatter

Hello everyone,
I don’t know what is wrong with my code, but I’m getting these two messages:


You can see my code here (repl.it)
Or here (GitHub)
If I get any help I’ll be grateful.

Hi @anabeatriz, you might want to edit your post and change the forum to the Python forum to get more eyes on.

Done. Thank you.

In your code here for the problems with answers:

	if mostrar:
		resposta = [eval(r) for r in problems]
		# Primeiro numero
		for p in primeiro:
			print(p.rjust(5), "    ", end=" ")
		print()
		# Operador e segundo numero
		for os in range(len(operador)):
			print(operador[os], segundo[os].rjust(3), "    ", end=" ")
		print()
		# Hifens
		for m in maxLen:
			if m == 1:
				print("-" * (m + 4), "    ", end=" ")
			elif m == 2:
				print("-" * (m + 3), "    ", end=" ")
			elif m == 3:
				print("-" * (m + 2), "    ", end=" ")
			elif m == 4:
				print("-" * (m + 1), "    ", end=" ")
		print()
		# Resposta
		for r in resposta:
			print(str(r).rjust(5), "    ", end=" ")
		print()

you are printing the problems and solutions. arithmetic_arranger() should return the arranged problems and solutions as a string. Your printed output looks correct, so it should just be a matter of changing all the print() statements to building up a string in a variable and then returning the string. You will also need to do the same thing in for the part that just arranges the problems without solutions.

Good luck.

@jeremy.a.gray Thank you. I’ll modify my code.

@jeremy.a.gray I changed my code, but these two messages are still appearing. :confused:

now you have different errors

there is also a diff part that compares the expected output with yours:
the lines starting with + are the expected output, those starting with - is your output and the lines starting with ? mark the differences between them

@ILM Ok. I didn’t know that. Thank you.

@ILM I don’t know what’s wrong yet. :bowing_woman:t2:

do you understand that the diff is poining to the “invisible” characters at the end of each line?

@ILM the 4 white spaces? I need them because of the rules of the challenge.

where does it say you need them at the end of a line?

“There should be four spaces between each problem.”

between each problem, there is not a problem at the end of the line

I accomplished the challenge. Thank you!
