Bug: instructions for kindergarten_garden do not match requirements #2725

Open sbromberger opened 8 months ago

sbromberger commented 8 months ago

A couple of inconsistencies within the kindergarten_garden exercise in which the documentation does not match the actual code requirements (as specified by the tests):

1) The docs reference twelve possible students by name. However, the tests refer to students not listed in the docs (see the names out of order test for an example), and students whose first name does not correspond to the given name in the docs (Eve [docs] vs Erin [test], for example).

2) the docs suggest that the first letter of the first plant should be capitalized. However, the tests don't require that as they expect a []string instead of a string.

@sbromberger The docs were recently synced with the "problem specification" original. I suspect this is where the differences came from. Do you want to make a PR with the fix?
