I'm at my wits end here. I've tried every trick in the book.
Someone please help out.

miketayo:


these r syntax errors, like that list shouldn't be in quotes "list" am sure there r more .. syntax errors r definitely the programmers fault.. chk ur code again

jacob05:


From the error message.. The manipulate_data function is declared with a string arg "list" instead of a valid variable name list.

I was only following the instructions given.
I also tried without the quotes but still nothing.

miketayo:

Wat errors r u getting?

Here's a snapshot of the error below.

rockok:
Maybe you did't understand the question. your function should be able to return different Ds base on the input. And that is possible using conditions in python. I hope you understand what I am trying to say here. Just use three different conditions.

Thanks.
But I tried all three options provided in the test but still got the same error for either trials.

Initially, I thought my code was incorrect as well, but I tried them out on codecademy and the codes worked.

I also copied their tests code and tried them out on codecademy only to get the same error as the one I got on the test page (invalid syntax).

However, I added the "unittest" omitted in their code and it worked.

I'm really confused right now 'cause I've tried my code on several online python consoles and they've been correct on all of them.

I also tried submitting without testing, but got the same error.

Someone should please help out.

miketayo:


Yeah I was getting 1 error, I spelt my invalid transaction wrongly. That was all

Hi! Thanks for the response.
But I wasn't referring to the OOP lab. Was actually talking about the ds lab.

I think there's something wrong with the test code written by andela. I compared that of ds lab with the one written for the OOP lab and I discovered that there was something missing there.

In the OOP lab's code, they used "unittest.Testcase" but in that of DS they only used "Testcase".
Based on my little knowledge, the used a universal import but forgot to include the "unittest".
I might be wrong though, so I stand corrected.

All you have to know is that your program should be capable of manipulating the three listed D.S ('list', 'dictionary', 'set') and produce the appropriate results. I initially thought I had to pick one but that gave me error.
Think of how to achieve each one separately and then bring all together.

Hi, could you please elaborate how you merged all three under one function?
I'm kind of stuck here.
Thanks.

miketayo:

Hi, have you been able to resolve the ds lab error.
If yes, please tell me how you did it.
