Build a Pin Extractor - Step 17

Programming Python
1

Tell us what’s happening:

I tried refactoring by placing the existing function body inside the new for loop, but the tests are still not passing. It seems I’m missing a specific requirement. Could you help me understand the expected structure for this task?

Your code so far


# User Editable Region

def pin_extractor(poems):
    for poem in poems:
        secret_code = ''
        lines = poem.split('\n')
        for line_index, line in enumerate(lines):
            words = line.split()
        if len(words) > line_index:
            secret_code += str(len(words[line_index]))
        else:
            secret_code += '0'
    return secret_code

# User Editable Region

poem = """Stars and the moon
shine in the sky
white and
until the end of the night"""

poem2 = 'The grass is green\nhere and there\nhoping for rain\nbefore it turns yellow'
poem3 = 'There\nonce\nwas\na\ndragon'

# print(pin_extractor(poem))

2

what about this line? is this inside the loop?

3

the return secret_code is part of the function. But even I do Two levels of indentation (8 spaces): Part of the for poem in poems: loop, I still can’t pass the running test.

4

can you share your code with the return properly indented to be inside the loop?

5

you have also changed the relative indentation for these lines, the if/else was inside that loop

def pin_extractor(poems):

for poem in poems:

    secret_code = ''

    lines = poem.split('\\n')

    for line_index, line in enumerate(lines):

        words = line.split()

    if len(words) > line_index:

        secret_code += str(len(words\[line_index\]))

    else:

        secret_code += '0'



    return secret_code

Done and it works. Thank you!
