I don’t know what the first question even is? I can move forward without it.

This lesson so far is pretty annoying (as is just about anything using Jupyter). Having to save multiple times before and after specific things just so the “test work” button will actually work correctly is frustrating.

I mostly wanted to post this so that if anyone in the future is on the verge of a meltdown like I was on the first page. You need to type the code, save, run the code, and if there is also output save again and then you can click “test work”.

I can’t get through the importing data sets section, it errors out when I run it and then Test Work fails as well.
I did manage to get the green check mark for the first 2, but the 3rd keeps saying laptops is not defined. Having just finished the Intro to Python course, this feels very poorly put together. /c:

Edit: The “fix” is to enter the code in a cell, click save, click run. Once that’s done, click the cursor into the next cell and enter your code, click save, then click run, then click check work. Then do the same for the last cell. You’re literally clicking save every time you type something, and I guess sometimes you get to do that multiple times.

Thanks for confirming that I’m not the only one having issues with it. Thanks for the “fix”.
