OK… Here I am… As the comedian Dane Cook says in his comedy show: “I did my best ” (Crying–Dane Cook)[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c01lYKJf2kE&list=PLkgLdJ-WHo8_kRXcpyccvUjLgV2C0-uqg&index=8]

Watching the Dane Cook skit before reading further might make you smile before seeing the question. Is a good show… But let’s ask the question…

Here’s my REPL:

This is the output of my tests:

12:04 AM, Friday (2 days later) expected

6:18 AM, None (20 days later)
6:18 AM, Monday (20 days later) expected

I did my best!

I am working on why am I getting those two mistakes. Also, why is it that my REPL says that there are six mistakes?

I just caught one of the mistakes in the following block of code:

def key_day_calc(total_day):
    while total_day >= 7:
        total_day = key_day_calc(total_day - 7)
    return total_day

It was missing the equal sign in the total_day variable.

Another fix:

    if reg_new_time[1] >= 1 and reg_new_time[1] <= 9:
        reg_new_time[1] = f"0{reg_new_time[1]}"

I was missing the equal signs in that conditional…

This is now the output:
