Build an RPG character - Build an RPG Character

Tell us what’s happening:

All the other posts do not help me get past 10. When create_character is called with valid values it should output the character stats as required.
I get the correct output required in step 9, but without the line feeds required in step 10.
When I do get the line feeds correct, I fail the requirement for step 9.

Your code so far

#Create Character
full_dot = '●'
empty_dot = '○'

def create_character(name,strength,intelligence,charisma):

    if not isinstance(name, str):
        return "The character name should be a string"
    if len(name)>=10:
       return "The character name is too long"

    if ' ' in name:
      return "The character name should not contain spaces"
    stats = {'STR': strength,'INT': intelligence, 'CHA': charisma}
    for stat in stats.values():
        if not isinstance(stat, int):
            return "All stats should be integers"
    for stat in stats.values():
        if stat < 1:
            return "All stats should be no less than 1"
    for stat in stats.values():
        if stat > 4:
            return "All stats should be no more than 4"
    if sum(stats.values()) != 7 :
        return "The character should start with 7 points"

    character_string = name
    for key in ['STR', 'INT', 'CHA']:
        stat = stats[key]
        character_string += f'\n{key} {full_dot*stat}{empty_dot*(10-stat)}'

    return character_string
create_character('ren', 4, 2, 1)

# Output:
# 'ren\nSTR ●●●●○○○○○○\nINT ●●○○○○○○○○\nCHA ●○○○○○○○○○'

This is the test case from the last test that’s not getting the expected result:

create_character("aaabbbcccd", 4, 2, 1)

hi @dee_kay , if you need help please create your own topic

hey, i found the problem;
if len(name)>=10:
return “The character name is too long”

it should be:
if len(name)=10:
return “The character name is too long”

the instructions specify this only triggering if the name is more than ten, rather than ten or more. hope this helps!

7

that is not correct, @mykicard

8

The length of the name should not exceed 10. But it may equal ten.

The below code passed for me. You can also try from your end.
