I’m not sure what’s wrong here. I’ve written code to handle the key rules for this challenge and all the tests look to be showing the correctly formatted answers, but they are not evaluating in the tests. My code is below: def arithmetic_arranger(problems, torf=True): # if optional argument is tr…

you need to just use the given numbers, and display them as required, not do the calculations

Oof, is one not allowed to use format strings in this challenge? This looks tedious as all get-out.

I’m not trying to solve the calculations - just trying to format the given numbers in the correct way. It looks like they are showing formatted correctly but the FCC test is not evaluating my code as being correct. That’s the help I was asking for as I’m not sure what’s wrong with my solution.

I’m not sure. I also tried a workaround where the code would add the spaces to display the numbers in the correct places, but that showed the same errors too.

you have spaces before the \n character after the last number on a line, instead there should not be

I’m not able to tell you if there’s an error or where that would be - looks like I’m much more of a beginner than you - just wanted to say hi and thank you for posting your code as it’s helping me figure out where I was stuck!

Instead of stripping the empty strings like that, you can use join method with empty spaces. nums = [] for top in tops: nums.append(top) " ".join(nums) Implement this logic within your code. Updated: I saw you rstrip the end spaces but you didn’t take the return value. Try nums = num…

I have a far more verbose solution to this project, and it works fine if I pass the test values directly to the arithmetic_arranger method: > # This entrypoint file to be used in development. Start by reading README.md > from arithmetic_arranger import arithmetic_arranger > from unittest import mai…

[image] craig.lunney: Yet if I comment out the method calls and use the test_module instead I am seeing the same errors as yourself. look at the errors, the diff scheme shows you where you have extra characters - it’s the easiest way if you have extra spaces or \n and where

I think I have figured it out, the trick is not to add “\n” to the end of the last lineof the output string.
