Build an RPG Character - Build an RPG Character

Tell us what’s happening:

full_dot = ‘●’
empty_dot = ‘○’

def create_character(name, strength, intelligence, charisma):
# — Name validation —
if not isinstance(name, str):
return ‘The character name should be a string’

# New rule: empty string name
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'

# --- Stats validation

Your code so far

    if len(name) > 10:
        return 'The character name is too long'

    if ' ' in name:

    ordered_stats = [('STR', strength), ('INT', intelligence), ('CHA', charisma)]

    # Range checks
    for _, stat in ordered_stats:
        if stat < 1:

    for _, stat in ordered_stats:
        if stat > 4:
            return 'All stats should be no more than 4'

    # Sum check (must be exactly 7)
    if sum(stat for _, stat in ordered_stats) != 7:
        return 'The character should start with 7 points'

    # --- Build output (exact order: STR, INT, CHA) ---
