I don't get it, I turned it to a string because I got a TypeError (TypeError: can only concatenate str (not "int") to str). It's still not working.
import re
# EXAMPLE:
# >>> find_words(4, "dog, cat, baby, balloon, me")
# ['baby', 'balloon']
def find_words(count, string):
return re.findall(r'\w{' + str(count) + '}', string)
note: I tried it on Pycharm and it worked.

characters long, not βcount or greaterβ. A missing comma will solve it.
Post back if you need more help. Good luck!!!
