Tell us what’s happening:
I compared and checked the number of spaces for the bar chart, the dashes, and the vertical titles and they all seem to be matching. Help? Not passing tests 21, 23, and 24 now. And I am also not really understanding what 24 is asking for.
Lastly, when I press F12 on my laptop, the wordings in the console is the same as that of the tests. I saw some people being able to bring up a different screen. Any tips? Thanks!
Edited to include tests:
[create_spend_chart] should correctly show horizontal line below the bars. Using three -
characters for each category, and in total going two characters past the final bar.
[create_spend_chart] chart should have each category name written vertically below the bar. Each line should have the same length, each category should be separated by two spaces, with additional two spaces after the final category.
[create_spend_chart] should print a different chart representation. Check that all spacing is exact. Open your browser console with F12 for more details.
