Challenge: Use the reduce Method to Analyze Data

Link to the challenge:

I think there might be a bug right now that causes the test to fail if you put comments and newlines between the methods.

Yeah, as Ariel says, if I take your code, remove the comments, and chain those methods on one line, then the code passes for me.

It shouldn’t work that way, but right now it does work that way.

Yep. And this bug means you currently can’t just copy-paste the solution from the guide and pass the challenge.
