Tell us what’s happening:

How to write this test 7, what this problem in the code that I have wrote? Anyone explain me?
The code should fulfil: 7. When create_character is called with a second, third or fourth argument that is not an integer it should return All stats should be integers.

Your code so far

full_dot = '●'
empty_dot = '○'

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

    #name
    if not isinstance(name, str):
        return 'The character name should be a string'
    if len(name) == 0:
        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   
    if not isinstance(strength, int) and not isinstance(intelligence, int) and not isinstance(charisma, int):
         return 'All stats should be integers'

You are assuming where your issue is, instead test it, add print(create_character('ren', '', 2, 3)) and see what is being returned by your function. The issue is not where you are assuming

3

print(create_character(‘ren’, 4, 2, 1)) shows ‘The character name should not contain spaces’ in the console.

4

It shows ‘The character name should not contain spaces’

5

yeah, can you figure out where does that come from?

6

But does the name passed to create_character contain spaces??

7

How? but the name doesn’t have any spaces

8

isn’t that the issue? check carefully your condition

9

got it, I missed space

10

when you are stuck, it’s always useful to use print() to see the value of things

Tell us what’s happening:

What is the issue here? It prints the value that needed then what is the problem?

Your code so far

def create_character(name, strength, intelligence, charisma):
    if not isinstance(name, str):
        return 'The character name should be a string'
    if len(name) == 0:
        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   
    
    if not isinstance(strength, int) or not isinstance(intelligence, int) or not isinstance(charisma, int):
        return 'All stats should be integers'
    if strength<1 or intelligence<1 or charisma<1 :
        return 'All stats should be no less than 1'
    if strength>4 or intelligence>4 or charisma>4 :
        return 'All stats should be no more than 4'
    if not strength + intelligence + charisma == 7 :
        return 'The character should start with 7 points'

    #printing spots

    def stat_spots(value):
       return '●' * value + '○' * (10 - value)

    #final displaying
    display = name
    display+= '\\nSTR '+ stat_spots(strength)
    display+= '\\nINT '+ stat_spots(intelligence)
    display+= '\\nCHA '+ stat_spots(charisma)
    return display

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

if you escape the newline characters, it will never go to a new line, refer also to the example at the end of the description
