Python

Hi’
so i think i’ve done everything right but i keep failing all of the tests on replit although the results are exactly as they should be .

Your code so far

You should not print the errors. As soon as you encounter an error condition, you need to return the error string.

Also, it looks like you are adding extra spaces at the end of each line.

run = “run = python3 main.py”

This line in .replit should just be:

run = “python3 main.py”

As Jeremy mentioned you have some extra spaces at the end of your lines:

AssertionError: Expected different output when calling "arithmetic_arranger()" with ["3801 - 2", "123 + 49"]

'  3801      123    \n-    2    +  49    \n------    -----    \n'
'  3801      123\n-    2    +  49\n------    -----'

First it shows your output, then the expected output. You can see how you have extra space between 123 and \n

oh so thats why it didn’t work, i just gave up on that and used the shell window instead, which does the same job.
