Tell us what’s happening:
I cannot get 7 onwards. I have tried everything and I still can’t seem to get it right, if anyone would be kind enough to help. All help is appreciated!
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 len(name) > 10:
return 'The character name is too long'
if name == '':
return 'The character should have a name'
if name != ' ':
return 'The character name should not contain spaces'
stats = [strength, intelligence, charisma]
if not all(isinstance(stat, int) for stat in stats):
return 'All stats should be integers.'
if any(stat < 1 for stat in stats):
return 'All stats should be no less than 1'
if any(stat > 4 for stat in stats):
return 'All stats should be no more than 4'
if sum(stats) != 7:
return 'The character should start with 7 points'
def dots(value):
return value * full_dot + (10 - value) * empty_dot
return(
f"{name}\n"
f"STR {dots(strength)}\n"
f"INT {dots(intelligence)}\n"
f"CHA {dots(charisma)}"
)

For test 7: What did you try to investigate?
What’s the requirement and what’s the line of code to implement it?
I changed the whole bottom half of the code and it still shows 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.
What does your function return when you call it with a second, third or fourth argument that is not an integer?
It doesn’t return anything
full_dot = '●'
empty_dot = '○'

I can’t get 11 and 12 can anyone help?
create_character('ren', 4, 2, 1) should return ren\nSTR ●●●●○○○○○○\nINT ●●○○○○○○○○\nCHA ●○○○○○○○○○.
This is what you should be returning, including where all the newlines should be.
Not sure why you changed this from what you had originally.
Did you copy this from someone else?
I rewrote the whole thing because I couldn’t get the stat section to work. But no I didn’t copy.

I fixed it, I just had to move the \n. Thanks for the help!

If that was true, why did you rewrite the last part, honestly
Also why did you completely restructure the entire thing.
Does not make a lot of sense tbh
I did look for help and I looked up ways to fix it
