2 years ago Will investigate more but I'm guessing they typed/copied in both blocks of code at the beginning so this was their full program:
def assert_equal(actual, expected):
if actual == expected:
print("OK")
else:
print(f"Error! {repr(actual)} != {repr(expected)}")
def double(x):
return x * 2
assert_equal(double(2), 4)
assert_equal(double(5), 10)But I didn't actually expect people to write assert_equal, it's provided for them. truncated_trees_match only knows how to ignore extra stuff after the expected program, maybe it should check each sublist of the body of the expected length.
This comes back to #94. It's really starting to feel like there should always be a lightbulb, even if there are no hints and the 'solution' seems obvious.

The "TestingFunctions" page requires debug mode to advance steps. There was no clear requirement to complete the first step. Asking for help is irrelevant since nothing is requested. I tried copying/pasting the code in case I typed something wrong. No change. Next button does not exist. Subsequent steps also do not advance, even if the output is the same as described in the text after advancing with debug mode.

STOP!
\n\n Try to avoid copy pasting code. You will learn, absorb, and remember better if you\n type in the code yourself.\n
\n\n When copying is appropriate, there will be a button to click to make it easy.\n If there's no button, try typing.\n
\n\n Having said that, we're not going to force you. Copy if you really want to.\n
\nGreat! Here's some final tips:
\n\n- Make sure the output is showing the problem you have and not something else.
\n- Reduce your code to a minimal example. Remove any code that isn't directly related to the problem.
\n- Run your code through the Snoop, Birdseye, and Python Tutor debuggers to understand what it's doing.
\n- Search for your problem online.
\n- Read How do I ask a good question?
\n
\nIf you're really ready, copy and paste the below into the question website,\nand replace the first line with a description of your problem.
\nYou can still change your code or expected output and click Run again to regenerate the question.
