I am really stuck on step 11 for Thread Shed. Everything in my code has worked fine up until now. I watched the video because I got stuck and for the most part, with some small changes, I don’t see any differences in what they have versus what I have.
With the below, under the “Separating Values” comment, this code snippet outputs the same sublists over and over. I also tried to make nested for loops but that only repeated the respective values within the first sublist. What is it that I am doing wrong?
