Build a Budget App - Build a Budget App

Tell us what’s happening:

In test 16, printing the ledger activity for a given category, I think my output is matching the example but I’m failing the test. There isn’t a line feed after the total line, so I know it’s not that. Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated.

Here’s my output (it lines up correctly in the console):

Food
initial deposit 1000.00
groceries -10.15
restaurant and more foo -15.89
Transfer to Clothing -50.00
Total: 923.96

Your code so far

class Category:
    def __init__(self, name):
        self.name = name
        self.ledger = []

    def deposit(self, amount, description=''):
        self.ledger.append({'amount': amount, 'description': description})

    def withdraw(self, amount, description=''):
        if self.check_funds(amount):
            self.ledger.append({'amount': -amount, 'description': description})
            return True
        return False

    def check_funds(self, amount):
        if amount > self.get_balance():
            return False

        balance = 0
        for tx in self.ledger:
            balance += tx['amount']
        return balance

    def transfer(self, amount, other):

            other.ledger.append({'amount': amount, 'description': f'Transfer from {self.name}'})
            return True
        return False

    def __str__(self):
        print_string = ''
        padding_left = (30 - len(self.name))//2
        padding_right = 30 - len(self.name) - padding_left

    pass

Very close but it’s not quite matching

Your output:

*************Food*************
initial deposit         1000.00
groceries                -10.15
restaurant and more foo  -15.89
Transfer to Clothing     -50.00
Total: 923.96

You can see you need another star at the top to line up with the right edge.
Example:

*************Food*************
initial deposit        1000.00
groceries               -10.15
restaurant and more foo -15.89
Transfer to Clothing    -50.00
Total: 923.96
