Why I can not get the result "Arc de Triomphe" in The Boredless Tourist exercise?

[luisardi]

I made all the exercise watching the YouTube video reference. The video is old and it’s very difficult to follow. Here is my code. Could someone tell me what could be failing?
Thanks a lot.

traveler_destination = traveler[1]
traveler_destination_index = get_destination_index(traveler_destination)
return traveler_destination_index

attractions =

attractions.append()

destination_index = get_destination_index(destination)
attractions[destination_index].append(attraction)
return

Please format your code so people can read it. Use the </> button above, or,

How do I format code in my posts?

To format code so it’s visible, either wrap it in single backticks for a small amount of code, or triple backticks on an otherwise blank line before and after for a large amount of code.

Sorry, is it ok like this? I am new…

Nope, those are quotation marks. The post I linked to explains it exactly.

Thanks you very much.
Sorry but my first language in spanish (problems with some words/symbols/commands) and I’m new into coding.
I hope it works this time.
Thanks again.

[lisalisaj]

Did you compare your code to what’s in the project walkthrough video? Is the indentation correct in your functions?

So, as a test w/ calling two functions:

smills_france = get_attractions_for_travelers(['Dereck Smill', 'Paris, France', ['monument']])
smills_france2 = find_attractions("Paris, France", ['monument'])

print(smills_france)
print(smills_france2)

>>Hi Dereck Smill, we think you'll like these places around Paris, France: 
>>['Arc de Triomphe']

We can see that the find_attractions function works, b/c it returns a monument for the city. The issue seems to be w/ the get_attractions_for_travelers function logic.

[luisardi]

I checked and rechecked with chat GPT and VSCode. I got one good result but I did not found where the error was. The video is older than the exercise and the explanation is not clear to me. The code in the YouTube video is different because it included some more lines that I understood where taken out after it was recorded.
I’m working with your input but if I use the smills_france2 and print(smills_france2) I just got [‘Arc de Triomphe’] and not the complete phrase.

[lisalisaj]

Comment out pieces of your code and use print() to deduce where the error is.
That’s what I was trying to do w/ smills_france2 = find_attractions("Paris, France", ['monument'])

I wouldn’t use CGPT for anything b/c of reliability issues.
