It doesn’t pass the tests, but python tutor tests it and it does pass the test.

The unit tests pass in a single word, not a list of words. Running “tests” without using the test runner often doesn’t test the right thing. Reading the test details/output typically shows what the issue is. You might need to click another “TEST FAILURE” variant to expand and see the details.

I understand, it can work, I’ll try it and let you know, I thought the result was a list of words since that’s what the test said what the expect_data was.

4

If you read the test output from that test it should say something about looking at specific variants for details of what’s actually happening. You want to expand the failures beneath that.
