Tell us what’s happening:
Hello everyone , my code is not passing the automated test. But looking at the results I am pretty sure I got the desired outcome.

What should I do to fix and pass the automated test ?

My code so far:

import numpy as np

def calculate(list):

  if len(list) < 9:
    raise ValueError('List must contain nine numbers.')

  transformedList = np.array(list).reshape(3,3)


  transformedListSum = transformedList.sum().tolist()
  transformedListMean = transformedList.mean().tolist()
  transformedListMax = transformedList.max().tolist()
  transformedListMin = transformedList.min().tolist()
  transformedListStdDeviation = transformedList.std().tolist()
  transformedListVariance = transformedList.var().tolist()

  transformedListSumAxis1 = transformedList.sum(axis=1).tolist()
  transformedListMeanAxis1 = transformedList.mean(axis=1).tolist()
  transformedListMaxAxis1 = transformedList.max(axis=1).tolist()
  transformedListMinAxis1 = transformedList.min(axis=1).tolist()
  transformedListStdDeviationAxis1 = transformedList.std(axis=1).tolist()
  transformedListVarianceAxis1 = transformedList.var(axis=1).tolist()

  transformedListSumAxis0 = transformedList.sum(axis=0).tolist()
  transformedListMeanAxis0 = transformedList.mean(axis=0).tolist()
  transformedListMaxAxis0 = transformedList.max(axis=0).tolist()
  transformedListMinAxis0 = transformedList.min(axis=0).tolist()
  transformedListStdDeviationAxis0 = transformedList.std(axis=0).tolist()
  transformedListVarianceAxis0 = transformedList.var(axis=0).tolist()

  calculations = {
  'mean': [transformedListMeanAxis0,transformedListMeanAxis1,transformedListMean],
  'variance': [transformedListVarianceAxis0,transformedListVarianceAxis1,transformedListVariance],
  'standard deviation': [transformedListStdDeviationAxis0,transformedListStdDeviationAxis1,transformedListStdDeviation],
  'max': [transformedListMaxAxis0,transformedListMaxAxis1,transformedListMax],
  'min': [transformedListMinAxis0,transformedListMinAxis1,transformedListMin],
  'sum': [transformedListSumAxis0,transformedListSumAxis1,transformedListSum]
}


  return print(calculations)

calculate([9,1,5,3,3,3,2,9,0])

Hello Jeremy,

This is what I got when running the code :

I think I found out what the problem is.

I was saving the dictionary to a variable called calculations and then returning that variable.

I changed it and now I only return the dictionary WITHOUT saving it to a variable.

Before:

  calculations = {
  'mean': [transformedListMeanAxis0,transformedListMeanAxis1,transformedListMean],
  'variance': [transformedListVarianceAxis0,transformedListVarianceAxis1,transformedListVariance],
  'standard deviation': [transformedListStdDeviationAxis0,transformedListStdDeviationAxis1,transformedListStdDeviation],
  'max': [transformedListMaxAxis0,transformedListMaxAxis1,transformedListMax],
  'min': [transformedListMinAxis0,transformedListMinAxis1,transformedListMin],
  'sum': [transformedListSumAxis0,transformedListSumAxis1,transformedListSum]
}

After:

  return  {
  'mean': [transformedListMeanAxis0,transformedListMeanAxis1,transformedListMean],
  'variance': [transformedListVarianceAxis0,transformedListVarianceAxis1,transformedListVariance],
  'standard deviation': [transformedListStdDeviationAxis0,transformedListStdDeviationAxis1,transformedListStdDeviation],
  'max': [transformedListMaxAxis0,transformedListMaxAxis1,transformedListMax],
  'min': [transformedListMinAxis0,transformedListMinAxis1,transformedListMin],
  'sum': [transformedListSumAxis0,transformedListSumAxis1,transformedListSum]
}
