Build a Medical Data Validator - Step 44

Tell us what’s happening:

“Code raised an error” in terminal but not console

I’m getting that error when trying complete step 44. There are no errors in the console that correspond to the terminal message so I’m not sure how to proceed.

Your code so far

import re


medical_records = [

is an error appearing in the terminal?

try changing the record to make invalid, see if like that you see something

No error in the terminal. I can make changes to it and get the correct errors in the console but when correcting the code I still get an error in the terminal but not in console.

please change a couple
of values of the medical records dictionary to be invalid, what happens if you do that?

like, change gender to be chicken

now you can see the errors you need to solve in the terminal

Oh, ok. I’ll work on that, thanks!!
