I responded to the bolded words below




What I'm saying in essence is that the reason why it's giving that error might be because the numbers were not enclosed as a list.
Dude, run it yourself.

Congrats to those that got the interview invite

I dont know what you're being asked to solve but try enclosing those numbers in square brackets and run it again.

Did I ask anything?

Please I need help. I have attached two images with one showing I had passed all the tests on said Lab but was unable to submit.

i'm not even going to pretend it was fun testing your code but when run on idle, it gives this error:

manipulate_data(1, 2, 4, -5, -9)
TypeError: manipulate_data() takes 1 positional argument but 5 were given

please edit that code so its more readable. use


for i in num_list:
if i >= 0:
positive += 1

else:
negative += i



if you copied your code, you wont understand mine

Where did the bolded come from? Do you draw inspiration from the abundance of shiit that has clogged your rectum?

Why is it that no one talks about the bootcamp itself except for d34lp guy. As soon as they get there, they forget this thread

Oahray:
did you run as unittest with the test cases on proctor?

Your method is fine, you can also loop over dictionary keys first using the .keys() method, then get each value with the key. ie

# pardon my indentation.
# after if statement to ensure staff is a dict

for oga in staff.keys():
. if tupe(staff[oga]) is (int or float):
. . #your remaining code

thanks. Found the problem and submitted. Please can u delete the quoted code. Not correct and misleading

Oahray:
sorry I didn't see this earlier. It doesn't look quite right... Your for-loop coming before your if-statement. If you pass in an int as 'staff' instead of a dict, the program would try to loop over it at that for statement, then realize it's an int which isn't iterable and you'd get a TypeError. Let the if isinstance() come before the for statement. Then...

You want staff to be a dict, but you seem to be treating it like a list. Can I see the instructions?

What's the right way to iterate over dict values. My code runs on idle

THERE IS AN ERROR/BUG IN YOUR CODE
Results:
Internal Error: runTests aborted: TestOutcomeEvent(handled=False, test=, result=, outcome='error', exc_info=(, TypeError("'int' object is not iterable",), ), reason=None, expected=False, shortLabel=None, longLabel=None) is not JSON serializable


please how do i eliminate this. Code runs on idle

Why not contact andela?

Because other people have done it and passed. I just have to keep modifying it till its exactly what they want. Hopefully that happens before Sept 23Rd. Thanks for your concern tho

I c. So ur code is working now?

Not exactly. Only people working directly on the andela proctor would understand. I've worked around this in other questions but I'm having some trouble here

Its always like that. People will always be weeded out. But do you really love programming? Do you have passion for it and why? Am asking because it is a long way and very rewarding too. Real programmers are self-taught. If you are strong in heart and you have something you wanna achieve with it, I suggest you press on with or without Andela. Python is an excellent way to start

As for json error, have you done some googling? Same problem can have different causes. Trust me it is problem solving like this that makes you a great programmer.

The problem is from their proctor
Jobs/Vacancies / Re: Andela: IT Training And Job by amamazzing: 3:25pm On Sep 11, 2016
If someone had already done it and was successful ,you'd need another reason. I don't see a limitation but an opportunity in your example
Jobs/Vacancies / Re: Andela: IT Training And Job by amamazzing: 3:18pm On Sep 11, 2016
Being an African is NOT a limitation. Having an oppressive environment and government, and an "oppressible" mind is.

Amamazzing I am experiencing the same thing too. first my oop is passing all tests but I can't submit. second tax lab is raising a Json error. With just two to go but it looks like I'm stuck. I think specifying the data types for the function argument and the values of the dictionary is going to be important. I have already adjusted but internet is sooo bad that I've been unable to test it. mtn is horrible!!!!

I use mtn and I've not been able to work for 2 days now.

That's true. A first timer will find it hard and boring, even though python is relatively straightforward. We really cant say if they are intentionally targeting experienced programmers. They are just after people with established interest in programming; not those coming in because they want just any jobs. A newbie with sufficient will and time can make something out of python in 2 months. Not referring to graduates searching for jobs!

I got invited too on the home study materials. I just decided against going into core programming.

I agree partly with you but in the beginning, what they were "selling" was a way out for job seekers. If that has changed maybe they shouldn't send the home study and stuff to everyone giving them hope. Imagine getting kicked out in first week of boot camp. There will always be slower learners. It only looks to me like people who have already tried their hands on programming will make it thru because there'll be no space for beginners.

I have no programming experience except for the intro courses taught in uni. I'm not going to give myself too much hope but I hope it goes well.

Meanwhile I can't get thru tax lab. Keeps raising json not serializable error

I guess i would rada nt take the test then, i dnt really av so much interest in IT though. Success in advance 4 dos that are preparing 4 d test.

Not to discourage you. Feel free to take steps to see if this is the right path for you. Download newbie python off books. Read the first 2 chapters and then go to codecademy.com to continue. If u can get thru it then I want to believe you can do it.

I seriously doubt that a newbie to IT can read that home study pack and understand it.

Try giving it to someone around you and see If he/she can make sense of it.

Andela claims the fellowship program is for beginners but its obviously not.

Exactly. They say beginners but target only (lightly) experienced programmers making it look like it can't be learned. See the study pack. That's 3 courses already. Rather bulky for someone without the IT background
