The return value should be a list but doesn't return as expected?! - Python newbie
- by user1432941
Hi this must be a very simple solution that has eluded me this last hour. I've tried to build this test function where the return value of the test_cases list should match the values in the test_case_answers list but for some reason, test case 1 and test case 2 fail. When i print the return values for the test cases they return the correct answers, but for some reason test case 1 and test case 2 return False.
Thanks for your help!
import math
test_cases = [1, 9, -3]
test_case_answers = [1, 3, 0]
def custom_sqrt(num):
for i in range(len(test_cases)):
if test_cases[i] >= 0:
return math.sqrt(test_cases[i])
else:
return 0
for i in range(len(test_cases)):
if custom_sqrt(test_cases[i]) != test_case_answers[i]:
print "Test Case #", i, "failed!"
custom_sqrt(test_cases)
