Build an RPG Character - Build an RPG Character

Tell us what’s happening:

I’m stuck on one test for the create_character function.

When the name is an empty string (“”), the function should return:
The character should have a name.

I’m already checking name == “” and the message matches exactly, but the test still fails.
Any idea what I might be missing?

Your code so far

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  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 = {'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, stat in stats.items():
        character_string += f'\n{key} {full_dot*stat}{empty_dot*(10-stat)}'

    return character_string

# ============ TESTS =========================

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

Welcome to the forum @EmilianoMarquez

Try removing the period at the end of the string.

Happy coding
