Build a Budget App Project - Build a Budget App Project

Python
1

Tell us what’s happening:

Okay, I know this is supposed to be a individual thing but I’m really stuck. I have been working on this for about 9 hours and most of that time I was trying to debug it. freeCodeCamp keeps telling me that my code “create_spend_chart should print a different chart representation.”

I think my output is correct but the test says otherwise.

I’ll upload the code below

Any help would be greatly appreciated…Thank you fellow coders!

Your code so far

There should be a note in the console to press F12 and check for a long verbose error in the devtools console.

Did you try that? Can you share that error output?
