I am having trouble with the second exercise on 1.9, Grouping With Case Statements. I edited the provided code to add ‘sum(amount_paid)’ after the second select statement to get the percentage sales for each category. However, when I hit ‘run’ the editor just runs forever, or until my browser freezes. What is the problem with my code that’s creating this issue?
