Tell us what’s happening:

test no. 5 is always wrong, is there something wrong in my code?

Your code so far

full_dot = '●'
empty_dot = '○'

def create_character(n, s, i, c):
    # Check name first
    if not isinstance(n, str):
        return 'The character name should be a string'
    
    if len(n) > 10:
        return 'The character name is too long'
    
    if ' ' in n:
        return 'The character name should not contain spaces'
    
    # Check if stats are valid integers
    # First, convert everything to string for consistent checking
    for stat_value in [s, i, c]:
        try:
            # Try to convert to int regardless of original type
            int(stat_value)
        except (ValueError, TypeError):
            return 'All stats should be integers'
    
    # Now safely convert them to integers
    s = int(s)
    i = int(i)
    c = int(c)
    
    # Check ranges
    if s < 1 or i < 1 or c < 1:
        return 'All stats should be no less than 1'
    
    if s > 4 or i > 4 or c > 4:
        return 'All stats should be no more than 4'
    
    total = s + i + c
    if total != 7:
        return 'The character should start with 7 points'
    
    # Calculate dots
    rs = 10 - s
    ri = 10 - i
    rc = 10 - c
    
    return f'''{n}
STR {s * full_dot}{rs * empty_dot}
INT {i * full_dot}{ri * empty_dot}
CHA {c * full_dot}{rc * empty_dot}'''

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

Consider whether trying to convert variable to integer proves that the initial data type was integer.

3

how to do that? I tried the int(charisma) but not right?

4

Try this test case

print(create_character("ren", "4", 2, 1))
5

You have in code check if variable has str data type. How that could be adapted to check if variable is an integer?

i did this and it worked…
