Tell us what’s happening:

Hi guys, I just can’t get through problems 18 & 19 need help :frowning:

Your code so far

full_dot = '●'
empty_dot = '○'

    # CREATE THE FUNCITON BRO

    def create_character(name, strength, intelligence, charisma):
        
        # check character name and stats

        if not isinstance(name, str):
            return 'The character name should be a string'
        if not name:
            return 'The character should have a name'
        if len(name) > 10:
            return 'The character name is too long'
        if ' ' in name:
            return 'The character name should not contain spaces'

        stats = [strength, intelligence, charisma]

        for s in stats:
            prev = 0
            if not isinstance(s, int):
                return 'All stats should be integers'
            if s < 1:
                return 'All stats should be no less than 1'
            if s > 4:
                return 'All stats should be no more than 4'
        sumstats = strength + intelligence + charisma
        if sumstats != 7:
            return 'The character should start with 7 points'

        def bars(stat):
            return full_dot * stat + empty_dot * (10 - stat)

        print(f"{name}\nSTR {bars(strength)}\nINT {bars(intelligence)}\nCHA {bars(charisma)}")
    create_character('ren', 4, 2, 1)

Welcome to the forum @mrbrekss,

I’m seeing this error in the console:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "main.py", line 6
    def create_character(name, strength, intelligence, charisma):
IndentationError: unexpected indent

If all values pass the verification, the function should return a string with four lines:

Should your function print the string or return it?

If you want to see what your function returns in the console, wrap your function call in print.

Happy coding
