💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Choosing options that ignore or skip parts of the task.

We split the big task into smaller parts to handle it easily.

2fill in blank

medium

Complete the code to create a function that runs each step in order.

def run_steps(steps):
    for step in [1]:
        print(f"Doing: {step}")

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using range instead of the list variable.

We loop through the list of steps to run them one by one.

3fill in blank

hard

Fix the error in the code that tries to run steps but uses wrong variable name.

def execute(steps):
    for s in [1]:
        print(f"Execute: {s}")

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using a variable name not defined in the function.

The function parameter is named 'steps', so we must loop over 'steps'.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to create a dictionary mapping step names to their order number.

Agentic AI

step_order = {step: [1] for [2], step in enumerate(steps)}

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

Cstep

Dnumber

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Mixing up step and index variable names.

We use 'enumerate' to get index and step, then map step to index.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to filter steps that contain the word 'data' and count them.

Agentic AI

filtered = [step for step in steps if [1] in [2]]
count = len([3])

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A"data"

Bstep

Cfiltered

Dsteps

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using wrong variable names or forgetting to count filtered list.

We check if 'data' is in each step, collect those steps, then count them.
