Same comment as a couple of posts above… What if the array contains strings or some other numeric value like a float? The type of content is not important, only whether it is a list or not.
def flatten_array(arr):
# Write your code here
flattened=[]
for x in arr:
try:
for y in range(len(x)):
flattened.append(x[y])
except:
flattened.append(x)
return(flattened)
print(flatten_array([1, 2, [3, 4, 5], 6, [7, 8], 9]))
Hi, I got this error from running my code but I still managed to run the program and get correct output. Can someone explain why the code works but the tester doesn’t work?
“Tests failed to run due to an error: “‘int’ object is not iterable”. Check your code and try again.”
Here’s my code:
def flatten_array(arr):
lst = []
for i in arr:
if len(str(i)) > 1:
for j in i:
lst.append(j)
else:
lst.append(i)
return lst
print(flatten_array([1, 2, [3, 4, 5], 6, [7, 8], 9]))
