Data Analysis with Python Mean-Variance-Standard Deviation Calculator

Tell us what’s happening:
Describe your issue in detail here.
I’m getting an error when submitting this code. The error states that ValueError is not raised by calculate. However, when ran on my own IDE, the ValueError is raised.

Your code so far

def calculate(a):
try:
arr = np.array(a)
arr = np.reshape(arr, (3, 3))

    mean_row = np.mean(arr, axis = 0).tolist()
    mean_col = np.mean(arr, axis = 1).tolist()
    mean_flat = np.mean(arr.flatten()).tolist()
    mean_list = [mean_row, mean_col, mean_flat]

    var_row = np.var(arr, axis = 0).tolist()
    var_col = np.var(arr, axis = 1).tolist()
    var_flat = np.var(arr.flatten()).tolist()
    var_list = [var_row, var_col, var_flat]

    std_row = np.std(arr, axis = 0).tolist()
    std_col = np.std(arr, axis = 1).tolist()
    std_flat = np.std(arr.flatten()).tolist()
    std_list = [std_row, std_col, std_flat]

    max_row = np.max(arr, axis = 0).tolist()
    max_col = np.max(arr, axis = 1).tolist()
    max_flat = np.max(arr.flatten()).tolist()
    max_list = [max_row, max_col, max_flat]

    min_row = np.min(arr, axis = 0).tolist()
    min_col = np.min(arr, axis = 1).tolist()
    min_flat = np.min(arr.flatten()).tolist()
    min_list = [min_row, min_col, min_flat]

    sum_row = np.sum(arr, axis = 0).tolist()
    sum_col = np.sum(arr, axis = 1).tolist()
    sum_flat = np.sum(arr.flatten()).tolist()
    sum_list = [sum_row, sum_col, sum_flat]

    keys = ['mean', 'variance', 'standard deviation', 'max', 'min', 'sum']
    values = [mean_list, var_list, std_list, max_list, min_list, sum_list]

    calculations = dict(zip(keys, values))

    return calculations

except ValueError:
    return "List must contain nine numbers."

Link to the challenge:

The except ValueError should be a raise, like this:

raise ValueError("List must contain nine numbers.")

If not, the UnitTest will not match your message with the expected message

Yes, this worked! Thank you so much.
