The automated grader uses a regular expression that looks at the beginning of the Docstring for an exact match.
For example... the code below passes and is nearly identical to your code. Note there is no carriage return (CR or \n
) after the """
triple quote,
class Treehouse:
def student(self, name):
"""Gives a pleasant message about the student.
Args:
name (str): The name of the student.
Returns:
str: A message welcoming the student to Treehouse.
"""
return '{} is a great Treehouse student!'.format(name)
