Tell us what’s happening:

Hello,

I am a newbie to Python and programming in general. I’ve completed the first part of the introductory course, however I cannot wrap my head around the tasks given to the RPG character creation and I refuse to google the answer because even if I see it, I want to be able to understand it. Can anyone explain to me how I should proceed on step 11 and 12 so I can understand it and solve it myself? i did not find the answer in the previous lessons or maybe I looked the wrong way…

Thanks.

Your code so far

def create_character (name, STR, INT, CHA):
    # NAME
    if not isinstance(name, str):
        return('The character name should be a string')
    if 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')
    if not isinstance(STR, int):
        return 'All stats should be integers'
    if not isinstance(INT, int):
        return 'All stats should be integers'
    if not isinstance(CHA, int):
        return 'All stats should be integers'
    if STR < 1 or INT < 1 or CHA < 1:
        return 'All stats should be no less than 1'
    if STR > 4 or INT > 4 or CHA > 4:
        return 'All stats should be no more than 4'
    if STR + INT + CHA != 7:
        return 'The character should start with 7 points'    
name ='ren'
STR = '●●●●○○○○○○'
INT = '●●○○○○○○○'  
CHA = '●○○○○○○○○○'

I re-visited the lesson and understoor it better now also with the help of another friend. It was hard for me to understand at first in theory and apply in practice.
